SIM Card Travails

I am posting this on behalf of someone else, a FOAF, or actually a FOAFOAF.

Seems this fellow somehow trashed his phone's SIM card. I do not know how, although I have requested this information.

Is it possible to recover the data from the card? I know this is done with regularity on CSI-like shows, and is probably a matter of finding out how much money the guy is willing to throw away towards recovering a dozen or so phone numbers that he could probably regenerate through other sources.

I back my phone up, and keep a physical list of the phone numbers I consider important to critical. If I rummage around in some boxes I could probably find an honest-to-goodness address book of mine.

But FOAFOAF is clearly not that kind of guy.
