As for calling card and callthrough details ...... these can be saved as long multiple numbers. Most SIMs have space for only 2 or 3 at any length over 20 characters, but the phone memory will hold more and longer versions.

Thanks, Andy.
I am not quite sure how to send the DTMF. I mainly wish to use my Treo. As an alternative I have serveral MOTOs. I'll look in the Treo manual for DTMF. When I dial or try speed dial on the callback or calling card connection, the Treo asks if I want to make another call and of course I don't want to put the open line on hold, I just want to send the DTMF string.
Yes, you are right about CBW. Problem is I believe there are limited numbers and for my voice mail I would still need to send additional tones.
Yes, for calling cards and callthrus, these work OK from the US. I usually re-program the destination number each time. That of course could be done for overseas but it can get hairy. Without callback: Local access, pause, PIN, pause, final destination #, possibly additional longer pause, voicemail access digits, pause, mailbox #, pause, mailbox password --
Example: 0211 XXX XXXXX Pause CALLING CARD PIN[123456] PAUSE PAUSE US VM destination [011 804 nnnnnnn] PAUSE PAUSE [VM pickup code] # pause [mailbox #] 4444 pause [VM PIN] 9999999999
I count > 40 space entries. A pain entering but a pain dialing, too.
