Dual SIM phones have long been popular in places like China. These phones allow the user to have more than a single system available to them. In some cases, this is used to seperate out work and personal lines, or to have access to a better daytime or long distance plan on a different network. Now Motorola has announced the EX128 and X115 phones for the European market. While these sorts of dual sim phones are not popular with the cellular providers (as they are often not locked to a single system and encourage people to shop for better services or prices), the public tends to like them because it allows them to have both a business line (for work) and a personal line, avoiding issues of using the company phone for personal calls.
No indication at this point if these phones will actively support both sims at the same time or will require switching.
