Still, it worried me a bit! :) (Also, I didn't know WordPress didn't handle subaddressing well, I'll see what I can do to fix that, thanks for the heads up!)

Power-cycling the phone would fix that. My old Nokia occasionally says "SIM CARD REJECTED" and I think it's the same issue. p.s. fix your blog so that it accepts pluses in email addresses. They ARE valid! If I had to guess, I’d say that the SIM card was loose or otherwise glitched when you first turned it on, so the ICCID didn’t match what the iPhone was expecting.
