The time between entering PIN and SIM ready can not be reduced, SIM
access is just too slow for that. One could try to power up GSM and get
the PIN earlier...

Uh, I'll leave that to the edge experts...It's a nice idea, though.

Just want to say that double click on a touch screen is generally not
such a good idea..

Please take a look at opimd in the framework. There is some discussion
going on arount opimd, also wrt. an sqlite backend.
Smartphone-standards would also be a good list to subscribe to.
