If you get the application that lets you switch between tablet/phone mode then just click that to switch to phone mode from the power button status menu and it gives you the option to enter your pin

Hi, this has happened me twice, and i had some trouble finding the "enter sim pin", but here it is 
Settings -> tap in the status bar (i'm not sure how it's called in english. I mean, tap in "Settings" in the top of the screen), choose "enter code to unlock sim". and there you have it
Maybe it could be a bit less complex, or more intuitive... but once you find it, you never forget where that menu is

or just disable offline modus by clicking on the power button.
It may sound like a stupid question, but I cant find the "Enter SIM Pin" dialog.
When I power up the phone, it asks for the SIM pin. I can skip that using the "Skip" button. Afterwards, the phone functionality is not available (because the SIM is pin-protected). Trying to make a call results in error messages like "Operation not allowed. Phone is disabled" and "SIM not available".
How do I make the SIM pin dialog come up again, without rebooting the N900?
I checked Settings -> Phone (comes up with error "SIM not available") and the phone dialpad (lets me dial but then sais "Not allowed, SIM not available"). The status menu has no function either. I couldnt find any other places to make it ask me again for the pin, except of rebooting the device.
Thanks for any help
PS: My firmware is 1.2009.42-11.003
