is there a dual sim card phone?

[lovely_20]

Hi,
I travel a lot between the UK and the Netherlands, and I would like to buy a phone that can hold 2 simcards. So far, I have found info on dual simcard holders, but that means I have to cut my simcards (I don't want that). Or there are other 2nd rate solutions. I just want a phone that has a built in possibility to use 2 different simcards.
Any info?
cheers,
Fedja

Samsung's SCH-Wxxx series is dual-SIM. I don't know the exact model numbers, though, but they're marketed as dual-mode (CDMA/GSM- they have dual card slots because here in China CDMA uses something like a SIM card but you can fill both slots with SIM cards and it will work).

yes, but are they for sale in the UK? Because I cannot find anything on the sites of the manufacturers.

get one of those chinese clones. Most have 2 SIM slots. Some now have 3.

all right, where do you buy those? online I guess. Any trustworthy sites?

There are several dual sim phones on ebay. Seach "dual sim". I don't think I'd recommend any of them though

Also, some model numbers to look for (you don't need 1900MHz since you're only in Europe, right?)-
Samsung SCH-W579, SCH-W399, SCH-W109, SCH-W219, SCH-W599
UTStarcom T66

BTW- these models are unique to the Chinese market so it may take some work to find them in the UK. Also, for the Samsung W579 there's no GPRS support.
