AT&T, Sprint and T-Mobile support new Apple SIM card that lets customers choose carriers

AT&T Mobility, Sprint, T-Mobile US and UK operator EE support a new SIM card for Apple's iPad Air 2 and iPad mini 3 that lets customers switch between carriers.

Although Verizon Wireless will provide wireless service for Apple's new tablet, it is not listed as a supporter of the new Apple SIM card. A SIM card that lets customers switch between carriers gives Apple more control in its relationship with carriers. The practical implication is that customers will not need to buy a different SIM card to switch service to a different carrier. As GigaOM notes though, it's unclear how the provisioning process will work if customers want to switch between carriers.
