Hi Vadim and all,

pyProg.py fails with an error, could you help (btw, I change all real info
to xxx :)):

support at S2600WFT:~/pysim$ python ./pySim-prog.py -p 0 -x 208 -y 93 -t
sysmoUSIM-SJS1 -i 208930000000003 --op=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
-k xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx -s xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx -a xxxxxxxx
Using PC/SC reader interface
Ready for Programming: Insert card now (or CTRL-C to cancel)
Generated card parameters :
 > Name     : Magic
 > SMSP     : xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
 > ICCID    : xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
 > MCC/MNC  : 208/93
 > IMSI     : xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
 > Ki       : xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
 > OPC      : xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
 > ACC      : None
 > ADM1(hex): xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
