I'm giving my wife my 1520.3 after picking up a 950XL for myself. She currently uses an L640. The 1520 uses a nano SIM while her 640 uses a micro-SIM. I know I can cut it and sand it to nano-SIM size but new SIMs are less than $5 on eBay, so I'm going that route.
The T-Mobile tri-cut SIMs are basically a nano SIM with a surround that makes it a micro with a surround that makes it a standard size. Best I can tell you basically just punch out as much as you need from the card they come in. But some reviews say the unused surrounds for the nano can be used as an adapter when a micro or standard size is needed.
Can anyone here confirm that? I was originally planning to buy a T-Mobile nano-SIM and a set of adapters to let her use that SIM in spare phones as needed, but if the tri-cut SIM eliminates the need for additional adapters, that seems the way to go.
