    Re: Sim Card Reader

    Actually John if you copied and pasted from Nextel this is what it
    actually says:

    "Nextel's new 3-Digit Series Phones (ex. i730) allow you to store 350
    more names, addresses and phone numbers than previous generations of
    phones like the 2-Digit Series (ex. i90c). You'll now have space for up
    to 600 contact entries as long as you use the "600 Contact" SIM Card
    that is included with your 3-Digit Series phone (located under your
    phone's battery). By using the included SIM card, you'll also be assured
    of getting full use of your 3-Digit Series phone's new features and
    receiving the best customer support."

    Re: Sim Card Reader

    SIM (Subscriber Identity Module)
    <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subscriber_identity_module> is a term that's
    specific to GSM, not iDEN or CDMA.

    Nextel does use a UICC smartcard <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UICC> in some
    phones, but it's more appropriately called something like Nextel Identity Card
    <http://www.nextel.com/en/services/worldwide/rental.shtml>. Other Nextel
    phones use IMEI.

    Similarly, the UICC smartcard for GSM and CDMA is called R-UIM (Removable User
    Identity Module).

    And you have yet to name a single phone produced in the last three years for
    Nextel that uses IMEI. You can't, because one does not exist. But feel
    free to continue lying to everyone in your posts- it simply proves your
    level of incompetence and general lack of cellular knowledge.

    Then GSM doesn't use a SIM either- it uses an R-UIM. Unless you concede
    like the normal population that SIM is a very generic term. Motorola calls
    it a SIM in the literature for the phones they produce and provide. Are you
    saying that Motorola is wrong?
