With the plans to make even smaller and sleeker devices Apple proposes SIM smaller than that of a micro SIM.
As if the micro SIM (Subscriber Identity Module) was not small enough, Apple has now proposed to make another deduction to the size of the card. With the present Micro SIM being used by most newer Apple devices like the iPhone 4 and the iPad, Apple wants to shorten down things further and proposes it to be the new standard when comes to global telecom industry.
The proposed SIM size, which is smaller than the Micro SIM, might result in the manufacturing of slimmer devices.
The decision on standardisation of SIM cards is pending with the European Telecoms Standards Body (ETSI), which has confirmed Apple's request.
