I can't decide on what to upgrade to. I will take that SIM. Please?! I would even pay extra for it--it's better than $80 per upgrade on my Magellan. LG Vue… I can’t decide on what to upgrade to.

The likelihood of someone building a SIM with a radio built in is probably really low due to the power constraints of the SIM slot. Although, that would be really cool. :) @ John: I don’t know if that’s possible – the SIM can affect whether or not a phone gets 3G provisioned, but I don’t think it can change what frequencies the radio in the handset can tune to.

My concern is two-fold: 1.) How quickly can it gain a fix? a SIM card slot can't push a whole lot of current, so I'm assuming the aGPS chip isn't *that* powerful. 2.) How will it affect battery life?

2.) How will it affect battery life?
