A one trick pony

TYPICALLY, ANY CELLPHONE that I get sent to review comes from one of the big brand manufacturers, such as Nokia or SonyEricsson. So I was interested to get my hands on a Wiki W05 Dual Sim phone.

From the news article:

The W05 is two phones in one, in that you can insert two different SIM cards and have two numbers active at the same time.

For example, say you have a private cellphone number that you only give out to friends & family, and you have a public cellphone number - maybe sponsored by your employer [so your boss can call you day & night], now with this dual SIM phone, you can have both SIM Cards inserted and active at the same time, and receive or make calls from both SIM Cards without needing to cycle the power on the phone to switch between SIM Cards, so when your boss calls outside of business hours, just ignore his calls, and when your wife calls tell her you've just left the Midrand server room and you're on your way home...
