Convert a SIM To a MicroSIM, With a Meat Cleaver

Posted by timothy on from the next-week-how-to-deliver-a-baby dept.

An anonymous reader writes "This morning, my shiny new iPad 3G 64GB arrived from the USA! The only problem was, it had an AT&T MicroSIM and as yet there is no such thing in the UK. So what's the solution? Get a chopping board, a meat cleaver, and a pair of scissors — simples!"

    ...and still the name of the provider gets truncated to "voda..."? Tsk, tsk.

    (Apologies for wasting a few seconds of your time with this pointless post... but i have to say something negative about something from Apple, or i'll lose street cred.)

    Oh bull, you pay for Hotmail or Yahoo every time you use them. You also send out ads with your messages. (Unlike GMail, for example...) So not only are you paying for it, the people you're corresponding with are, too. Whereas Apple just made the default signature "sent from an iPhone", which btw, also lets the person you're emailing know you're not at your desk.

    It's not a legitimate rant. Sorry.
