Ok, just curious if anyone is making a SIM adapter to allow me to put in my i4 Micro SIM into my 3GS normal SIM slot.

I am planning on keeping my 3GS for those times I would prefer not to bring the i4 out of the house, like Six Flags or a water park where I have to put the phone in a locket etc.

Any suggestions? or is anyone using one of these with success :rolleyes:

I've been directed here. Looks pretty legitimate, although I can't say I've tried one (in general or a Luxmo specifically).

Let me know how it works out; I may be interested in one, too, but haven't been keen enough to pull the trigger :rolleyes:
 
My carrier (T-Mobile UK) gave me one when I upgraded to the iPhone 4 (cause I needed to activate the new sim in my old phone before activating the iPhone).

Just a small plastic thing you put the micro-sim in and it works fine just like any other normal sized SIM.

I was disappointed in the one I bought off of eBay. The adapter was too big, and my micro sim would go right through it.
 
Make it yourself. It's not that hard. I did it with an old tmobile sim card. Just needs to be held together with like a sticker. I used scissors and an exacto to cut out the gold part. Just make sure you line up the 3 lines of the microsim with the inner 3 lines of the old sim so you know where to cut at.

Normally they would come with a piece of sticker to fix your micro sim to the adapter. Try using a piece of tape?
