According to a report by GigaOM, Apple is working with Gemalto in developing a SIM card as it is installed on the iPhone and allow users to activate the device with any carrier and no need to interact with it.
This SIM card would contain a chip that has a component and a memory upgradeable FLASH ROM. In the ROM would be the data related to IT and network security while in the FLASH memory related data would stay with the operator you choose.
It would appear that this new SIM card would have two advantages. On the one hand, the process of buying the iPhone is considerably reduced and on the other hand, Apple prevents telephone companies to install additional software on their phones.
