One of the more interesting things unveiled at Apple‘s most recent press event was the company‘s AppleSIM, or universal SIM technology embedded in the iPad Air 2 that quickly allows users to switch carriers, presenting you with easy wireless broadband pricing for each carrier option.

While AT&T was supposed to be a partner, the company later stated they wouldn‘t fully support the functionality either.
