Has anybody successfully used these? I've got a US and UK BlackBerry, and would like to be able to only carry one phone. They appear to not be officially supported, and the software to run them looks like a hack.
I'm really surprised no mainstream phone companies make a two SIM phone.

Do a search, last year we talked about this - popular in Asia, particularly China. Dual sim phones readily available in Shenzhen, for around $100. Not sure how they would handle email....

I was more interested in the adapters. I'm a bit leery that you have to shave your cards down to get them to fit.

Forgot to mention Samsung actually makes a two sim phone for Asian market; my HK GM had one when I saw him last year. You can probably find on their web site.

I've seen them advertised widely in the former Soviet Union - can't remember the supplier off hand, but was interested in the idea when I was in Belarus!

Yes Samsung does make one...I saw it in the Etihad inflight sales catalogue last fall...was priced well...something like $250 or so...
I should have picked one up as I have the same issues...
