service with NorthState in NC

[Christopher White]

I get the same error:

AT&T "blazing 3G" SIM:  71234 D / 2022

It's a prepaid SIM I just got for testing.  Steve, are you saying it's a
bad SIM, a bad type of SIM, or a bad provider?  I've not dealt much with
SIMs before, so when going back to the AT&T store, I'd like to know how
best to get them to give me a new one.

Would this be related to why openmoko-dialer crashes whenever I try to
dial out?  It gets sometime gets to the "Outgoing..." screen, but often
just dies right after clicking "Dial".
