Motorola Iridium 9500

Yea went to the telstra shop today, they had no idea

Go to another Testra shop, tell them you need an adaptor to allow you to use your micro sim in a standard sim device or better still take the sat phone with you and show them, if they don't know what your talking about ask to speak to the shop manager as they should!

As mentioned below a new sim cards used to come in a plastic frame that has the adaptors built in I imagine they still do, they should have plenty of old frames laying about you just need to break out the size to fit the sat phine and insert the micro sim in it.

Also you need to have international roaming active on your account for the sim to work, this can also be a problem to have connected if you don't have it as most of the service people seem to stuff it up when you ask them to activate it.

Thanks HB, I took the phone in and they had nothing to suit, even bought a $2 sim that had all the adapters in it but the adapters are not big enough.
Need something this size

The 9500 needs the full credit card size adaptor, you can easily activate international roaming online yourself these days.

It look likes it takes a big sim card like this one on the link.

I didn't even know you can get this size any more, or will the phone fit a normal sim?

I Will try telstra again this morning, we were hoping to head to marble bar toady

perhaps this might help - they might have something
