Author Help needed with nokia 6680

I am currently with 3 and have a sony ericsson 850i. Hiwever I have cracked
the glass on this and am waiting to get it fixed. In the meantime I am using
my Nokia 6680 which works fine apart from I cannot connect to Planet 3. When
I try to go online it tries to connect through Orange which was my previous
provider. I rang 3 customer services up to see if it would be possible to
download the correct settings to my 6680 and I was told that I wasn't
allowed to put a 3 sim in a a non 3 phone. They also said my sim would be
suspended if I carry on using the 6680. It all seems a bit childish to me. I
have been on the 3 website to see if I can find the settings for Planet 3
but I can't find them. Can anybody tell me where I can find these settings?
It's not as though I am trying to cheat 3 out of anything I just want to use
my other phone while I get my SE 850i fixed.
Many thanks
Dave

Nokia website has an online configurator. And three are correct in what
they say about suspending you for using a device other than the one you
should be using. It's in your T&Cs. As long as you don't lock it to 2G
mode you will probably be allright.
