The German smart card maker's nano-SIM will be one-third smaller overall than current micro SIM cards, as well as 15 percent thinner. The reduction in shape may allow phone makers more room for parts like batteries and more powerful processors, or help them slim down devices overall.
The company aims for the nano-SIM to become a universal standard by the end of 2011, which would put it in phones by 2012. Giesecke also will make adapters, so the card can fit into larger-sized SIM slots.
