I see your point Steve, but if you have another sim you only use for outgoing calls then it works fine. For example, I have my contract sim and then I keep a PAYG one for numbers that are not covered by my contract such as 0845 and 0870 for example and I also use it for Email and Web which are also not included in my contract. So if I want to use it, rather than carry a second phone I could have both the SIMs in the one handset. Then again, it wouldn't give us the excuse to have two phones! Barbara
