My home alarm has a sim card, but I doubt I could switch carriers anyways on it as it would require a reprogramming of the device to use new access points anyways. In this setting where the hardware is provided as part of the service that I use, having this new technology can make the devices smaller while still using the GSM technologies.]]>Apr 23rd 2009 4:38PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/04/23/t-mobile-announces-tiny-new-embedded-sim-for-connected-devices/http://www.engadget.com/2009/04/23/t-mobile-announces-tiny-new-embedded-sim-for-connected-devices/
For stuff like alarms, meter readers, etc, reprogramming the numbers should be easy since most likely the hardware is sold at least nation wide if not worldwide, so it has to have some easy mechanism for doing that.]]>Apr 23rd 2009 5:03PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/04/23/t-mobile-announces-tiny-new-embedded-sim-for-connected-devices/http://www.engadget.com/2009/04/23/t-mobile-announces-tiny-new-embedded-sim-for-connected-devices/
Along the same lines as companies moving to mini-USB then micro-USB connections, if you want to shrink the device you have to focus on the big chunky connectors and other such parts.]]>Apr 23rd 2009 4:37PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/04/23/t-mobile-announces-tiny-new-embedded-sim-for-connected-devices/http://www.engadget.com/2009/04/23/t-mobile-announces-tiny-new-embedded-sim-for-connected-devices/Apr 23rd 2009 4:40PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/04/23/t-mobile-announces-tiny-new-embedded-sim-for-connected-devices/http://www.engadget.com/2009/04/23/t-mobile-announces-tiny-new-embedded-sim-for-connected-devices/Apr 23rd 2009 4:45PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/04/23/t-mobile-announces-tiny-new-embedded-sim-for-connected-devices/http://www.engadget.com/2009/04/23/t-mobile-announces-tiny-new-embedded-sim-for-connected-devices/Apr 23rd 2009 4:48PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/04/23/t-mobile-announces-tiny-new-embedded-sim-for-connected-devices/http://www.engadget.com/2009/04/23/t-mobile-announces-tiny-new-embedded-sim-for-connected-devices/Apr 23rd 2009 4:50PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/04/23/t-mobile-announces-tiny-new-embedded-sim-for-connected-devices/http://www.engadget.com/2009/04/23/t-mobile-announces-tiny-new-embedded-sim-for-connected-devices/Apr 23rd 2009 4:55PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/04/23/t-mobile-announces-tiny-new-embedded-sim-for-connected-devices/http://www.engadget.com/2009/04/23/t-mobile-announces-tiny-new-embedded-sim-for-connected-devices/Apr 23rd 2009 5:22PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/04/23/t-mobile-announces-tiny-new-embedded-sim-for-connected-devices/http://www.engadget.com/2009/04/23/t-mobile-announces-tiny-new-embedded-sim-for-connected-devices/Apr 23rd 2009 8:20PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/04/23/t-mobile-announces-tiny-new-embedded-sim-for-connected-devices/http://www.engadget.com/2009/04/23/t-mobile-announces-tiny-new-embedded-sim-for-connected-devices/Apr 23rd 2009 8:33PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/04/23/t-mobile-announces-tiny-new-embedded-sim-for-connected-devices/http://www.engadget.com/2009/04/23/t-mobile-announces-tiny-new-embedded-sim-for-connected-devices/
Wow, that's brilliant. You spelled out pretty much every word and used correct punctuation, but then used "yr" three times, for a total savings of six characters.]]>Apr 24th 2009 5:17AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/04/23/t-mobile-announces-tiny-new-embedded-sim-for-connected-devices/http://www.engadget.com/2009/04/23/t-mobile-announces-tiny-new-embedded-sim-for-connected-devices/If anything, I think phones are getting to small for normal hands, that's why I prefer smart phone so I can at least find the keys without too much problem. I cannot dial 911 on my G/F's Sony candy bar phone to save my life if I am blinded by, say Philips LED lights.]]>Apr 23rd 2009 4:42PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/04/23/t-mobile-announces-tiny-new-embedded-sim-for-connected-devices/http://www.engadget.com/2009/04/23/t-mobile-announces-tiny-new-embedded-sim-for-connected-devices/
Think about other devices besides phones. This would save space on devices that would never have the need to switch carriers... ]]>Apr 23rd 2009 4:48PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/04/23/t-mobile-announces-tiny-new-embedded-sim-for-connected-devices/http://www.engadget.com/2009/04/23/t-mobile-announces-tiny-new-embedded-sim-for-connected-devices/Apr 23rd 2009 4:49PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/04/23/t-mobile-announces-tiny-new-embedded-sim-for-connected-devices/http://www.engadget.com/2009/04/23/t-mobile-announces-tiny-new-embedded-sim-for-connected-devices/Apr 23rd 2009 5:42PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/04/23/t-mobile-announces-tiny-new-embedded-sim-for-connected-devices/http://www.engadget.com/2009/04/23/t-mobile-announces-tiny-new-embedded-sim-for-connected-devices/Apr 23rd 2009 4:48PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/04/23/t-mobile-announces-tiny-new-embedded-sim-for-connected-devices/http://www.engadget.com/2009/04/23/t-mobile-announces-tiny-new-embedded-sim-for-connected-devices/Apr 24th 2009 1:41AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/04/23/t-mobile-announces-tiny-new-embedded-sim-for-connected-devices/http://www.engadget.com/2009/04/23/t-mobile-announces-tiny-new-embedded-sim-for-connected-devices/Apr 23rd 2009 5:12PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/04/23/t-mobile-announces-tiny-new-embedded-sim-for-connected-devices/http://www.engadget.com/2009/04/23/t-mobile-announces-tiny-new-embedded-sim-for-connected-devices/]]>Apr 23rd 2009 5:23PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/04/23/t-mobile-announces-tiny-new-embedded-sim-for-connected-devices/http://www.engadget.com/2009/04/23/t-mobile-announces-tiny-new-embedded-sim-for-connected-devices/
But they didn't, so I wouldn't be worrying if I were you.]]>Apr 23rd 2009 10:34PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/04/23/t-mobile-announces-tiny-new-embedded-sim-for-connected-devices/http://www.engadget.com/2009/04/23/t-mobile-announces-tiny-new-embedded-sim-for-connected-devices/
There are times when I love using my google phone while I'm in the city but switch back to my older sony ericsson phone that I got from europe that doesn't die so fast cuz it has no 3G but does have a very good camera. I usually swap the sim card and I still get my calls and contacts. If they embed it instead if it being swappable...then they're realyl locking me to one phone even if the same provider.
