What do people think of the dual sim adapters - are they any good - I've heard they had problems with them?

Are there any phones out there that already have this compatiblity?

There were some nokias a few years ago i remember. Main problem was you selected which sim you used at switch on and to use the other meant turning off and on again as you could only use one at a time.

I had one of those things a few years ago for my nokia. It resulted in 2 burnt out handsets. Never used a similar device since. I do keep a spare sim behind the battery in one of my phones now though.

Yeah. Mine did that. I gave up using it.

I have one in my Nokia 6100 which adds another menu to the phone called "Dual Sim". You literally select the sim you want and it changes over without turning the phone off at all.
