G+_Jonathan Stein Posted December 15, 2013 Share Posted December 15, 2013 A SIM card is already a data storage device. It just has perhaps a couple hundred kilobytes of storage for network information from the carrier who provides it and a separate space for contacts and message storage.

G+_Blake DeVoss Posted December 15, 2013 Share Posted December 15, 2013 ...because then Verizon/AT&T/etc. would charge you $125 for a 8GB Sim Card. Personally, I'm happy the way it is. Also, remember that it would cause problems for people who need to change their Sims out regularly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
