It is truly depressing how the idea of a SIM card holding storage as well (your contacts!) didn&#x27;t get bigger.<p>It&#x27;d be awesome if my sim card ( or something the size of the old simcards ) had as much storage as it could manage. With today&#x27;s microSD densities, you can realistically hold everything and more than what&#x27;s on your phone (though the storage medium itself is less resilient..).<p>Then you go to work, pop it in your hardcore resilient phone. Go home, pop it in your tablet. This however empowers users almost exclusively, there isn&#x27;t much advantage to a consortium of companies implementing this.
