I think Yackie means that even though there is a new or different LINK, the person behind the site is the same person (company) behind the first, original site. Yackie claims it is a German person who lives in Bangkok.

I cannot verify that statement. Just trying to clarify.

Yackie is right. The mentioned guy is named Markus Hauschild and is managing his one-man-adventure together with his brother and his Thai wife.
I have contacted him several times since I bought a GT-SIM in 2006 for allmost 40 EUR and after I recommended this SIM to my boss who is a frequent traveller.

Mr. Hauschild is a very pleasant phone partner with one big fault: 99% of his promisses, sentences ot whatever are naked lies.
The last big one was with the replacement of the old dead GT-SIM (Callkay) with a new one. The first time the excuse was: Oh, of course, but in your details I just see that you've ordered your SIM over gt-sim.de. But we first replace the orders over gt-sim.com, please be patient for 14 days. This one was repeated 2-3 times from september 2007, now we have Feb 2008

I doubt that somebody actually has received a new GT-SIM from him.
Another story was with the dual-sim-phone. He meant the first charge of 50.000 pieces was literally swallowed by their distribution channels so one has to wait 2-3 months untill again deliverable. But... has somebody this phone? Any test, any opinions? Negative... a little bit strange considering the 50.000 phones that are in use...
The third myth was in connection with a new product of GT-SIM where the minute rates for all networks in Germany should be less than 8 ct/min.
And so on...

Now he is selling another GT-SIM with another roaming partners (at least for Bulgaria there are all 3 networks listed, the old one had 2 roaming networks there) with setup fees of again 40 EUR and cheap minute rates. But how reliable is this card? How long will it survive?

As gt-sim has vitually NO support - apart from the big stories of Mr. Hauschild - and no information system if somethings goes wrong, this time I will not play the early adopter and will abstain from this offer.

Any GT-SIM user here and interested in some news?

My SIM just logged in to all four networks in Germany.

No SMS, no Callback and no reachability at the moment.

Believe it or not, mine is now registering in the USA on T Mobile USA...

Can you make or receive calls on it? I guess it may need to be re-activated before that can happen. If that's the case, I guess us that bought from resellers that have packed up "freeGlobalSim" are so out of luck.

...I was just going to write not that I can make or receive calls yet...incidentally my re-seller had requested and I had furnished a request to reactivate which was acknowledged.

I guess one small step at a time.

Is yours a GT SIM or another Manx SIM? If so which one?

Looks like GT is back, calls will be directly routet to the mailbox, notification via e-mail within 1 minute.

At the moment no calls incoming, no SMS outgoing, no SMS incoming.
