Cutting your mini sim down to micro sim does indeed work. It has been extensively tested on almost all Danish providers by a Danish website. They have also tested a cut down mini sim with a "micro sim to mini sim" adapter which also works.

Ordered a cutter at http://www.microsimcutter.com last friday. They seem to have them in stock since it shipped out today 
Save your $25 and DIY!!!
Not that hard the use a pair of sharp scissors. I cut mine down two nights ago and works perfectly.
Give it a try and if you do screw up you can go to a Corporate AT&T Store and get a free sim. Just be sure to bring your old cell phone so they can activate your new sim.

I do not have ATT but this is perfect for TMo users who want to use their SIM in the iphone 4 or ipads without having multiple data accouts to pay for.
Has anyone been able to download this pdf? For me it'll get to about 2/6 MB, then finish abruptly. When trying to open Preview gives a "may be damaged" error.
Holy dang $25!?! There's an American company selling them for only $6. Luxmo: http://www.luxmo.com/p-1514-micro-sim-adapter-for-blackberry-models.aspx It says for the blackberry but it will work for any of course.
Thats $25 for the cutter and adaptors and your link is for adaptor for same price as the other.
I am glad I got one and Planetbeing had issues cutting his sim so why mess up if you don't have to?
Ah, I did not notice it came with a cutter. And good point. But wait...so it's $19 for the cutter? OUCH!
It's more like $9 for cutter + $6 x2 adaptor all for $21. They got a special in honor of iPhone 4 being unlocked.
iphone 4 pay as you go?
Hi, I want to buy an iphone 4 and was just wondering if I buy the iphone sim free (unlocked), will I be able to get a micro-sim and use it pay as you go. I was also wondering the internet on the iphone would cost money from my credit. I currently have an O2 pay as you go mini-sim for my current phone and so I am also wondering if I were to cut it to size weather I could use the iphone on pay as you go with that sim as per usual. Thanks.
