Visorphone and its SIM chips

Perhaps those who own the visorphone can help me with this question:

Since Visorphone is a GSM system, it naturally has a SIM chip inside the phone.

Has anyone tried to transfer [a subset of] addressbook to the SIM chip?

If this can be done, then, it would be the easiest way to transfer all these information to GSM-enabled cell phone.

Thanks in advance

it is easy to transfer the numbers stored in the SIM to the Visor by using the copy feature in the SIM Phonebook app (included with the VPhone).

But only the numbers you stored in the SpeedDial can be easily copied to the SIM.

You may also be able to use a program like GSMtool, depending on how the phone parts appear to the software - people elsewhere here have reported that some phone apps will talk to the VP for things like SMS.

You can find GSMtool at www.gsmtool.com - I mostly use it for making backups of my SIM on the Visor, but it will sync in both directions.

GSM tool is nice proggie but Only useing IR and havn't a lot of problem with Serial Com.

Next version should be very useful to VP users.

I use a Classis very hard to find program called PhoneMgr copy manage SIM Phone Book. Still little PITA thought.
