@Khang, This is the kind i use, its a single sim that will carry 2 cut down simcards, you get some blanks so yyou san retreive tthe cards back to single use again, in this Ebay link it is £30 but some are only £15 on Ebay in UK.

You must remember that the "sim" memory needs to be used in order to save confusion when dialing by leaving the "Phone memory" phone book empty & just using the "SIM" memory on the P900 so it means the speed dials can't be used. an entry in the list to say which sim you are on can then be used to make sure mistakes are not made.
switching on Nokia's is donee with a keypad code, but on SE you have to power on/off the phone which is a pain.

A bit risky cutting down your sim card in size. I have a Ghost Dual Sim in my P800, I used the T68i version and carefully folded the ribbon cable to make the adapter fit. It just about fits under the battery without affecting the rear cover. I can't imagine that your service provider will supply you with a new sim if you damage the original whilst cutting it.

@jucame, You can use sim memory though, its just a case of (with flip on) going into phonebook then hitting the information button then "OK" that brings up the sim memory.
You CAN use "Phone memory" if you still want to, just like you do now but as with all twin sims, you need a way of knowing what sim your on at any given time, so its BETTER to just use sim phonebook, but not essential.
@west-one, Trouble is that unlike my old P800 the P900 has NO ROOM anywhere for even a Ghost sim,
This kit gives you 2 "Recovery" sim holderss to put your cut down ones back to normal use if you need it, also i have 2 or 3 times over the years asked my network for a new sim saying mine is a little worn & they have just sent one out at no charge, thats Orange & o2, so no problem.

Can someone please post a picture of how this dual sim adapater works on a P900 (Before placing the battery and after placing the battery and closing the cover)?. I am unable to understand how can two SIMs get into the small compartment without breaking something. I just dont find any space behind the P900.
It would be great if someone showed the pictures.
Also, has someone tried the other dual SIM adapaters where we dont have the cut the SIMS?. There is a ribbon that comes out and the TWO SIMS have to be placed on top of the battery or something.
Please help!!!

Just got the dual SIM. Its looks fine and fits fine. Will post a PIC soon. I have inserted two SIM, looks like its working fine, the back of P900 Is slightly bulged, but not too much.

I now have two connections and use the DUAL SIM to switch. I use f to connect my PC to the Internet (WinXP + SEP900 as modem + DSS Sync Station USB Cable).
Does anyone know how to switch between dual SIM on a SEP900 withou having to switch it off and on again?
Check out how I connected my SEP900 to my PC for browsing on the thread
