Interesting question. I've not taken my Telna SIM abroad, myself. I've sent it with friends, who much to my dismay never turned the phone on. What phone did you use that didn't work in ZA?

Don't remember exactly. It was a Samsung clam shell phone. Think it came with a TruePhone SIM... As soon as it came back from SA we sent it off to be recycled.

That would probably make it a E2210 or E2210B. I got both of them when the phones with Truphone SIMs were dumped.

Beside my love for Windows Phone (which is my daily phone os), my Piranha Sim sticks in a Blackberry Q5 I bought last summer as a O2 prepaid bundle in UK for GBP 99.00

When travelling, it is the absolute satisfaction. Everything is designed around the messaging hub where you have all the informations at one sight. With the latest BB OS 10.3.1 it runs also most android apps smooth which gives me the freedom to use all VOIP apps I need (mobileVOIP, and piranha mobile as well as Local Phone through native BRIA app or from the play store)

This mobile could be found quite cheap from ebay UK. As it is a business phone, it brings free goods such as Blackberry Travel etc. along.
