    Anyone know where'd I'd get a USB Sim Card reader nice and cheap? I know mobilefun do them, but I've swore never to use them again after the (lack of) service I recieved before from customer service, and the quality of the product recieved.


    Basically, you put your sim card into the usb reader and into your USB port. Most of them come with some sorta backup software for your sim card numbers too.

    Any ideas welcomed, cheers :)
