No support for 3 (Three) SIM on iPhone (first generation)

Last night I finally (11 days after the launch) managed to upgrade my first gen iPhone from the 1.1.4 firmware to 2.0 (I'll post the details in the next couple of days). However, I was saddened to see that the 2.0 firmware still doesn't allow me to use my '3' SIM card with my iPhone. :(

Apparently this isn't an issue in the second generation iPhones, but I'm yet to see this for my own eyes. I'll keep investigating and will post if I find a solution.

And for anyone who is wondering: you will never be able to add 3G support to your first gen iPhone with a firmware upgrade, this just isn't possible because it doesn't have the necessary hardware. However, hopefully we'll find a solution soon that allows us to roam on the other networks using a Three SIM.
