Thanks for the response Andreas.  I have 2 follow up questions:

1) even though the 7110 is not a heavy duty phone, what could account
for the fact that it is always the phone of operator "A" that has the
problem first?  We have swapped the sim cards into different 7110s and
the effect is the same:  it is always operator "A" that blocks first.
(does it help if i tell you "A" = "swisscom" :-) ?

2) in your opinion, what is a "heavy duty GSM modem"?  does anyone else
on the list have an opinion/recommendation for a "heavy duty GSM
modem"?  i've seen people mention wavecom before.... ?

Thanks for your help,
Nick
