Here you go:
AT+IMSI:

ERROR

AT+COPS=?:
+COPS: (2,,AT&T,310410),(2,,AT&T,310410),,(0,1),(1,2)

OK

As for Global devices I can get access to one and find out how it
looks but I won't be able to try it roaming.   Doesn't the device get
all the details via the GSM sim card and then the AT+COPS command will
say who the provider is and we get the APN from the Broadband
Assistant database?
