Last but not least, ViewPad 10Pro was showcased at the congress, a 10” commercial tablet PC with dual boot functionality, offering a quick switch capability between Windows® 7 for business use and Google Android 2.2 for personal and social entertainment.
If they are using the same carrier, then yes, both active. But if they are different providers, then I am curious also, because it would probably have higher consumption (if the answer is yes).
I don't think this one has dual-radios, so you will have to switch from one SIM card to another. I could be wrong though...
