SK Telecom envisions it being used in dumbphones — as the CPU is onboard, there wouldn’t be a need for the device to have one — letting consumers move between sets or perhaps to a tablet with even more ease than they already can.
They took a video of Theme SIM, a related technology where they store theme elements and UI on your SIM Card, but unfortunately we don’t get to see the Android demo. Oh well… we’ll give you what we have:
Interesting concept… do you think it will fly?
