It's time to get your T-Mobile iPhone 5 party started with T-Mobile's own NanoSIM made specifically - since there's no other phone that uses it - for the current-generation Apple smartphone. What we're seeing today is the NanoSIM in a set of T-Mobile stores across the USA - the one you're seeing in this post appears to have been sent out - or at least printed - near the end of September. With these NanoSIM cards users will be able to plug their non-carrier-specific iPhone into the T-Mobile network for big pink connectivity across the USA.

We've arrived at another Friday evening, which means that the weekend lies ahead. Today, as many of you probably already know, was the one-year anniversary of the passing of Steve Jobs.
