Yep, true 
Somebody has any clue how this functionality works?
I would guess the 'national' limits the available (switchable) network codes only to "friendly" providers. And 'roaming' opens up all available roaming networks. ???

One thing comes to mind;
It could be that the SIM state is presistent, that it is stored on the card itself.
Then you could change the state using the Asha, and swap the SIM into the N900 and it would remain in the state you set it to?
Worth a try IMHO.

Yep! Worth a try (as this is true with some dual-SIM adapters).

Sorry for late response but I don't have permanent access to wifi in this country.
It worked!
I've put the sim card in the asha phone and made the change. Once in the n900 the phone connected to the network. Now when I'll be back home I'll have to do the change again and set it to national.
Waiting to buy an Neo900 and hope it will have the functionality build in.
Thanks for your suggestions.
PS: The explaination may be that my provider has negociated roaming directly with some providers in the world to whom he
gave the imsi of the sim, and in other countries maybe he uses a third party to whom he communicates another imsi maybe
with an international format. This is only a suggestion and my understanding of how things work.

So, there is no way for me to have service in this country.
In my case this entry in the menu is used to have service in some countries where my provider doesn't have direct roaming. In the countries where it has direct roaming I don't have to do anything to have service, but where my provider hasn't direct roaming I have to use this entry in the menu and set it to roaming and when I'm back in my country set it to national.
So, no service for me...
