MUSCAT -- Nawras has announce that the latest micro SIMs, designed to slot into the new Apple iPad, are now available from all 23 Nawras stores. As new handsets and other new communication tools like the iPad are launched featuring the smaller SIM-card slot, Nawras is ready to help customers take advantage of these trends and innovations.

Micro SIM-cards are also sometimes referred to as 3FF (3rd form factor) SIMs. As the name suggests, they are smaller in size than the SIM card currently in use, with an otherwise identical appearance. In order to benefit from the micro SIM, customers need to purchase a regular Nawras welcome pack or use their existing Nawras SIM-card and Nawras will replace it with the micro SIM for just RO 2.

Ahmed Tabook, Head of VAS marketing, roaming and international, said, "As customers have come to expect, Nawras is showing innovation by providing the very latest technology. We are pleased to have the new micro SIM-cards available in all our stores from today even before the new iPads arrive in the Sultanate. Once again we are ensuring that Nawras customers get more choice."
