Hello All,
What is the preferred Sim Card Reader/Writer for the SysmoSim Card,
A.K.A., the GrCard Sim?
And is the following known to work reliably with the SysmoSim Card?
SIM Reader kit - v1.0http://www.adafruit.com/products/101I contacted
Adafruit.com yesterday and they explained that their device
doesn't work on all Sim Cards.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Sincerely,
Martin

You can use just any PCSC supported smart card reader, preferably a CCID compliant USB
reader.
OmniKey is a reference, but the pkey smartcard reader (a bit cheaper, with lots of clones)
is also very handy.

There is no "preferred reader". Any reader compatible with ISO 7816-2
an -3 should work with the SIM Card. Otherwise, how would one make sure
that the sim card works in all phones?

Well, then _they_ should be able to explain why that is, and what
exactly those restrictions are.
I would strongly recommend for a device that claims compliance to the
ISO 7816 specs. And I would go for a reader that supports USB-CCID and
is compatible with libccid / pcsc-lite on Linux:
