Future SIM cards

The list may be like this

  1. GPS module
  2. WI FI module
  3. NFC module
  4. And a JVM

Yah all this thing can be in your SIM card in future. To me the JVM is the most important part which is now being called as JAVA card 3. JAVA card 3 is now far far better than java card 2 which was introduced in 1998. JAVA card 3 has now like CLDC1.1 with the syntax support of JAVA 5. That is cool. Thoik now you can develop application not only for your phone but also for your SIM card.

Still the number of JAVA card 3 supported SIM card is very small now in market. So SUN has developed a box which is named SUN spot. In fact in the Sun SPOT you can insert your current real SIM card and then connect the Sun SPOT to your mobile phone and use your phoen as usual sometimes even better. Interestingly Telenor has a good support on this project. You will get some nice demos on the following video.
