iPhone Unlock Card? Close but Not

What can you get out of this US$30 Brando iPhone unlock card? Unlocking or jailbreaking your iPhone? Not. What it does is it actually fools your iPhone to believe that the SIM card is an AT&T SIM card, thus allowing you to make calls and access all basic applications such as mail, google map and SMS. But judging by the pic below (from Brando’s site), you would seem to need to cut off the corner of your SIM card in order to get this working, too bad not much literature on Brando’s site in regarding how the SIM card should be attached.

Another thing, according to the Brando site, this so-called unlock card would only work for firmware up to v.1.1.2. So far, feedbacks from a number of iPhone user forums reported significant lag while using communication applications pertaining to the SIM card. But nonetheless, a clever alternative.
