According to the document "3GPP TS 27.007 V6.4.0 (2003-09)" which I
downloaded from the ETSI website a long time ago, this command should do

   AT+COPS=?

You are supposed tp get back a list of available networks with their
status (available/current/forbidden), network name (long/short/numeric),
and type of access available.

I don't have a card handy to see if it actually works.
