The Apple iPhone 4 was released just some 2-3 days ago. And like in the iPad, the iPhone 4 will only support the microSIM standard. Well the MicroSIM basically is a smaller cousin of the normal SIM you’ve been using all along. Just see the image to the left to get an idea. So how do you convert the normal SIM to a MicroSIM? Well there are two ways, just read on.
Well the first way would be simply to cut it using a knife or a sharp pair of scissors. This of course requires you to have a steady pair of hands or the results could be dangerous. If you would like to do this, just follow the article over here.
A more better way would be to to use a new tool, quite appropriately, called the Cut My Sim. Its basically a SIM cutter which is semi-automated. You just insert your SIM, press the lever and your ready to go.
