OK, this is part of the problem (I think)
My sim card is:
63513 	 G 	 3001 	 64k smartchip 	 does not respond to at+cimi 

Which is listed as:
"SIM cards that don't work with original gsm firmware" 

Now, I read it somewhere, but how do I open an SSH session into this thing 
so I can follow those steps?
How do I get a keyboard on the screen?
Thanks!
ET
