I wish they could allow me to test!! I'd swap my SIM asap, after all my SIM card normally contains nothing, bar for a few SMS:) -- Best regards, Odhiambo WASHINGTON, Nairobi,KE +254733744121/+254722743223 _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ "If you have nothing good to say about someone, just shut up!." -- Lucky Dube

Small query, What happens to contacts on phone memory? Or does the SIM card read the entire phonebook including entries in the phone memory? Would like to know. Regards, -- Brian Everyone has photographic memory, not everyone has film though.
I think Safaricom should offer a full upgrade pack that offers a much more than the sim-toolkit applet to read a phonebook. This has been in ZAP from day one!! We cant wait 3 years to get an upgrade that could have been designed and written in a day!! On Tue, Jan 26, 2010 at 4:56 PM, B Lusiola <lusiola@gmail.com> wrote:

Haiya! Does the ZAP one read contacts from both SIM and Phone Mem? Now that Brian mentioned it, I'll actually hate to have the upgraded M-Pesa reading only contacts from the SIM card, as I never store any contacts on it!! I must have spoken too soon for this upgrade:( -- Best regards, Odhiambo WASHINGTON, Nairobi,KE +254733744121/+254722743223 _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ "If you have nothing good to say about someone, just shut up!." -- Lucky Dube
I'm not a mobile developer but I wonder if there is a standard way to access the phonebook (be it sim/phone memory) across the different phone makes and OS platforms from a SIM card app. @Washington we might as well be popping bottles too early... :) On Tue, Jan 26, 2010 at 5:10 PM, Odhiambo Washington <odhiambo@gmail.com>wrote:
