Thinner Future Gadgets Comment
Future gadgets will likely be thinner and lighter weight then ever, and Apple is actively working toward making its iPhones and iPads thinner by suing smaller SIM cards. Apple has proposed to standardize a thinner SIM, but the European Telecommunications Standards Institute has yet to make a decision.
A smaller SIM would help to decrease device thickness by a minimal amount, but the company seems obsessed with optimizing for fractions of a millimeter. If the telecom industry does agree to adopt a smaller SIM card, then other smartphone and tablet makers are sure to follow on the same standard and make their gadgets thinner too. For years, Apple ha s been a design leader in the technology industry, and it is frequently the first t introduce products with cutting -edge form factors.
