SIM-card memory capacity is 16 Kbytes, cards with larger memory capacity are planned to be produced in future.

This is the storage capacity of your SIM Card on which you can store telephone numbers and SMS messages.

Ordinary cell phone service works so that the unique serial number in your phone (its ESN) is used by the cell phone service provider to identify who you are. The wireless service 'knows' that a particular phone's serial number is your phone and knows to send phone calls to that phone when someone dials your phone number. A GSM phone is not directly linked to you. Instead, it has a removable account card, called a SIM (subscriber information module) and this SIM has a unique serial number on it.

The SIM (Subscriber Identity Module) card (SIM Chip) is the brain of your handset. The SIM card is approximately the size of a credit card. The SIM chip is removed from the card holder and inserted into the back of the handset. It’s about the size of a postage stamp, with embedded circuitry on one side. When inserted into a GSM handset, the SIM when activated by Cable & Wireless facilitates mobile service on a particular GSM network.

Insert the card into the card slot as shown. (The EVOLT E-500 supports xD-Picture Card media as well as CompactFlash? media.) Push the card gently straight in until it clicks.

Orient the card as shown below. For CompactFlash? media, hold the memory card so that the contact area is on the card's left, pointing into the card slot, and the CF Mark is in the upper left corner of the card. For xD-Picture Card? media, hold the memory card so that the gold contact area is facing the back of the camera and the notch is facing down.

Ok, when is the iphone actually going to come out (real date not just June)? Also where there be AIM or ichat on this device, or is it just e-mail. Because for a kid, like me, they really want AIM or ichat? Thanks! Now that we’re on the brink of June (release month), there must be some major updates to the iPhone, necessitating an updated FAQ.

If you have SIM contacts you can transfer them over to the phone by using the SIM Manager or if your phone does not have one, the regular Contacts program itself will have an option to copy from SIM to phone. If you have a lot of contacts on your SIM card, you can easily automatically import all SIM contacts by using a small utility like SIMImp.
