i've bought a sharp 770sh phone yesterday and i've tried a 128k sim card but it says no signal or something....the person who sold the phone to me said that the phone only takes sim cards less than 64k.....

I could give you plenty of 64K SIMs but they would be no use to you

I wouldn't mind a couple! Are they pre-stk, pre sim2 Some of my old phones/trunking units etc doesn't like the new ones.


Can the old 1999 Vodafone (the ones with 40 SMS slots) and the 1998 bellsouth cards still be connected? I have a few unused ones still. Some *old* embedded stuff does not like the new cards and/or the SMS slots being greater than 20 (or 10, gasp) is a huge advantage for these systems.

If I send you one of my 32k 64k SIMs the only use it will be to you is a lite paper weight and nothing else
