For the first time in the cellular market, a SIM card will combine high capacity flash-based storage, with densities reaching 256 Megabytes, and advanced security features to enable a variety of compelling mobile applications."</i><br /><br />The other day we told you about <a href="http://www.thoughtsmedia.com/spt/forums/viewtopic.php?t=6518">HTC using M-Systems memory in the Typhoon</a> line of phones. It appears that M-Systems has been very busy, because they just announced a new SIM card that includes 256MB of memory on it. This sounds like a great idea. Instead of putting a miniSD card under the battery, why not use this new "<i>MegaSIM</i>" and give me an external SD card for moving files to and from. :D
