> What type of data exactly is on a SIM card? And what is the difference Your cellular account info, like your own phone number and anything else your carrier programmed into it. And, if you use it, a phone book. Non "smartphones" use that as their phone book. It's one of the advantages of GSM over CDMA, you don't need to jump through hoops to transfer your settings from phone to phone, just move the card. > between the "SIM Book" as opposed to the main phone book listings? I The SIM Book is the GSM default phone book, compatible with any GSM phone. The "main" listing is the Palm address book. The Treo can read and write to both, but you have to specifically tell it to write to the SIM Book. I used it as sort-of a backup, I've copied some of my phone entries to it in case I ever do get a cheap second phone. If that is not a concern, then you can ignore it and configure the Contacts to also ignore the SIM Book. -- Jeffrey Kaplan www.gordol.org The from userid is killfiled Send personal mail to gordol Peter's Top 100 Things I'd Do If I Ever Became An Evil Overlord, #149.
