Even though that is a chore, it is the simplest way to do it. Other options include expensive devices that transfer data from phone to phone or hooking the phones up to your computer.

Once the other SIM card is activated, the old one will no longer work. In the United States you can only have one active SIM card associated with a telephone number.

I am on a different CDMA network with my personal phone and have a spare GSM phone to use as the phone function of my horrible employers' Motorola MC70. I have to transfer the sim card between the two units to do the data downloads nightly and the chore is cumbersome as you must hook up the car charger to the unit because you will lose the date you must do the entire setup -the unit does not pick up the network time stamp). I simply want to clone a card so I can skip this procedure

There is no device which can copy the subscriber information on a SIM card. You should not mix your personal phone use with that of your employer. Use your SIM card in your personal phone and the employer's SIM card in the phone they issued to you.

Does the standard sim card copier also copy network information as well as SMS and the contact list. I want to clone a card so as not having to keep transfering the sim card to different phones. One is a multipurpose unit that is horrible but I have to use it for work and the other is a Motorola KRZR. This would make life much easier
