I ran this idea past NWC's wireless expert, Frank Bulk. He tells me there is such a feature, called "multi-NAM." It's a broken version of what I want. Basically, only one number is active at a time, and it's up to you to switch between them. Good luck managing that. So, Molta is right--this is the sort of half-thinking you get when you leave the device design in the hands of those who have a vested interested in limiting user capabilities. Imagine Verizon and AT&T services on the same device. I doubt the Earth's rotational momentum could stand the strain.

With low earth orbit (LEO) satellites fast becoming the norm and 3GPP unifying telecom standards around the globe, the satellite IoT and machine-to-machine (M2M) sector ought to be looking at a bright horizon. But is this the case?
