Micro-SIM template foriPad/iPhone 4 SIM Cards

The Apple iPad 3G and the upcoming iPhone 4 do not use a SIM card with thestandard dimensions of 25x15 millimeters but a micro-SIM. Micro-SIMs aresized 15x12 mm, but the contact layout is identical to the standard SIM.Therefore, a standard SIM can be easily cutted to Micro-SIM format and beused in the iPad 3G or the iPhone of the 4th generation.

How does it work?

1. Print out this PDF Document containing the black stencil tothe right. Make sure that the Printout is not scaled down while printing!

2. Cut out the black stencil above. The outer outline defines Standard SIMformat, inner outline MicroSIM-Format. Glue it on the back of your standardSIM card (NOT on the contacts!). The white area must be placed exactly on theback of the chip.

3. Use a pair of good, sharp scissors to cut away the black area of the stencil,leaving the inner white surface.

4. Remove the glued stencil from the back of your SIM Card. You can use anail file to trim the cutted edges of the card or for fine adjustment.
