    I mean of all the stupid shit to remove from a phone, why is the sim card THE big deal? I mean who the fuck cares? a SIM card is infrastructure dependent inherently, it is just a token for a network! What is the problem of storing the token for a network digitally. The SD slot and the headphone jack, Yeah those are useful. But the SIM slot? I don’t get it.

      if your phone dies you can easily love the sim card to the new one and move on with life.

            Then there won’t be carriers that don’t support it for long in the United States!
