When Hacking Gets A Bit Too Literal

When Hacking Gets A Bit Too Literal

Everyone loves a good hack. There are good hacks, bad hacks, clever hacks, then there’s just plain old hacking.

John Benson purchased a 3G iPad and traveled home to the UK hoping to be able to simply switch SIM cards. The one problem? The 3G iPad takes a MicroSIM card, which aren’t yet available in the UK.

Some might have been stumped. Some might have given up. Not John.

John is now happily using his 3G iPad on the Vodafone network. Good work John!
