We're using a SD/SIM combo card to save space. It as design decision make very early on in our development cycle. Largely, based on the idea that we thought mini-SD was going to be a bump in the road to micro-SD. At this point the vendors making micro-SD cards are not pushing the size limits as fast as we had predicted. So for our second generation device, we will review this again. <snip>
So does this mean that a standard SIM card won't work? Is it one of those things where you have to cut up your sim card (wonder what do I tell cingular when I bring THAT in)? or are we just talking about some kind of combo system on the bus? -- --Jeff What DO you call whitewater when you live in the desert?
