freerunner unable to work with 3G SIMCards?

[Arne Zachlod]

Hi David,

thnks a lot, i have found now these wiki-article: 
http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Carriers#Germany and have seen that i have 
nearly the same SIM-Card (i have 64K, 3V, #513, H244, 27-658-30xxxx-9 
UJ), so i think the new one will help and my problem are gone then.
for the SIMYO-problem: i found here 
https://www.simyo.de/de/informieren/umts.html that all new simyo cards 
are 3G cards. I would still propose that you request a new card, because 
simyo is part of e-plus, so i think they use the same SIM-Cards.

Bye, Arne
