According to Apple and European wireless provider O2, the micro-SIM in the iPhone 4 cannot be transferred to the iPad and vice versa. This is sure to sadden some Apple fans, but according to O2, there is a valid technical reason for this. Nick Wilkins, spokesman for O2 said, ‘the micro-SIMs for the iPhone are set up to allow voice calls, SMS messages and data functionality, whereas the iPad micro-SIM is provisioned to allow pay-as-you-go data transfer only. The two devices are designed to give a different experience. The iPhone 4 is for regular use, whereas with the iPad we offer more flexibility over data use.' While we are not questioning the honesty and integrity of O2, we certainly are when it comes to Apple. The highway robbers at Cupertino have long been known for pillaging their consumers and robbing them of their hard earned money. Unfortunately, the peasants, er… Apple fan boys, are more than happy to hand over their money – much like real peasants donated blindly to the Catholic Church hundreds of years ago.
