mate just received the phone he bought for $190.00 on ebay [made in china] model CECT p168or 169 quad band, has provision for 2 cards tried it with one telsta and one optus worked ok just switch between the two, you could have telsta on one for all your outback calls then pick a cheaper server to make calls in major towns any body tried this thanks mal b

Sounds like a good idea. I used to have a similar thing in an old nokia. but to swap between sim cards, you had to turn the unit on and off and it would swap. Would be good if the phone could do through settings or something.

Cheers
Mick

it can work Doug..........use a cheap carrier around town ie I use 3...and maybe a Next G pre-paid card for rural use. Think outside the square.

"it still cost $$$"

Yes that is true, what I might lose on expired credits on a next G card, I would more than recoup on the cheaper rates from 3.

As you said for lots there is only 1 choice anyway!! LOL
