Thanks guys. For info, the micro SD fits into its holder and then
clicks into place. Then I put the SIM in its holder and it sort of
goes on top of the micro SD and the battery on the top. What I am
trying since my original post, is to use a small piece of plastic
bag , the sort that cables etc. come in, and out it between the
battery and the SIM. SO far it is working fine.
I'll look out for a micro SD and copy from copilot to my new one.
Borg, did you buy 2x1GB because 1GB is the max? I can't find if it
will take a 2GB card?
Cheers
