- No, haven't even got a N97 for me yet. Maybe December... Gave him a 3600 Slide I won in a Nokia contest for journalists
- Good to hear from you Meraj. I'm willing to bet it wasn't a Nokia N97 that you gave to your father?

Mobile Industry Review
Daily news and opinion for 250,000 industry executives and mobile fanatics
I am having a real problem using all my mobile phone accounts.
I’ve been giving a lot of thought, for example, to upgrading my 3 account with one of their funky E71s. Whilst Ben Smith didn’t rate it, James Whatley in today’s MIR Show was raving about it. ... Continue reading »

All GSM providers should allow you to divert your number. The problem is, you pay for the diverted portion of the call. If I divert my Vodafone number to another Voda, it's only a few pence per minute. If I divert it cross network, or to a premium rate number - it costs more. You can do the same for video calls. Annoyingly, no provider allows you to divert text messages. I don't think it's part of the standard.
Your phone will have an option hidden away called Divert, or similar. If not, you can use the USSD codes manually - http://www.theunwired.net/?itemid=945&catid=80
Vodafone used to offer a product called MultiSIM. It gave you multiple SIM cards with a single number. The SIMs could be switched on and off at will. So you get in your car, activate your car phone, step out and activate the phone in your pocket etc. It didn't do text or (for technical reasons) GPRS. It has now been discontinued.
Basically, you're probably better off signing up to, say http://personalnumber.com/ and giving that number out. You then use the web to divert your calls to the SIM of your choice. Again, it won't forward SMS.
Right, where's my consultancy fee?

...and the N82/N95 Functionality with the E71 design is something I mentioned to pretty much every Nokia employee that would listen when I was in Helsinki.

The GPS implementation makes it actually usable as a navigation device too. Pity Nokia Maps is so utterly, utterly pants that they force you to use the brilliant new Google Maps instead.
