Nano-SIMs are being stockpiled by European networks

I assume that most readers of this forum are enlightened and so are neither scientologists nor Apple customers, but nevertheless let me mention that NanoSIMs are fully backward compatible to all previous form factors. Since the contacts layout has remained the same you just need to prune older SIM cards to match the new form factor. NanoSIMs are 0.09mm (that's less than a tenth of a millimeter!) flatter than previous SIM cards but I doubt SIM slots are made that precisely that a tenth of a millimeter will make a difference.
