Default Twin SIM or SIM Clone

Please Login to Remove!

Does anyone have an opinion on which would be a better approach, to use 2 phone numbers with my blackberry I have found the Dual SIM holders and SIM Cloners I am using a 7230, with an 8700 on the way. Would like to be able to have my personal SIM so I can make calls from and use the company SIM for connectivity to the BES. I have seen on the twin SIM websites that you must have one of the SIM's forwarded to receive calls on your device from both service providers.

I don't see that as a problem, does anyone have any input on how th SIM Cloner works, or how well the dual SIM holder works?

Thanks, Doug

A lot of people here have said that a dual SIM doesn't work with the Blackberry. Just search "Dual SIM". You'll see a bunch of threads saying it's not possible.

This is absolutely correct dual SIMS will not work.

However Three Sims will.



Just kidding...... it's been a long day... time for some humor....
