Upgrade to New Simcard on T-Mobile USA
 
1 Attachment(s)
Hello Everyone,

Just bought a new simcard for the N900 and registered it with T-mobile.

My old simcard came with a Nokia N90, also from T-mobile.
After changing the the new sim two things happened

a) Increased 3G talk time substantially (from ~3.5 Hrs to ~ 4.5 Hrs)
b) Decreased random call drops.

Can experts on simcards take a look at the picture and comment why the new simcard's connector is smaller in size?

The new simcard is the one being pointed to in the picture.
:)

I've heard that it's way better to get a new sim every two years or so. I've had mine for over 6 years now. I should get a new one..

Your old sim card looks like its been through a war.

RAZR, N90, N95 and finally it stopped working properly inside of a N900. I suppose even SIMcards do age :)

I am sure many of the dropped calls related rants here could be solved with brand new SIM card.

I've had my sim card for about 10 years and moved it around 4-5 phones and it still seems to work fine.
