I saw you are offering interesting new Satochip blank card in form of SIM card for making our own hardware wallet with Satochip code.
Huh, that is interesting!  I was just playing around with my Satochip when I decided to check out the HW wallet section to do a little research on it after the Ledger debacle, and I came across this old thread.  The SIM format is probably over my head, but I do like the newer products coming out from the developers of the Satochip. 

By the way Tibu, this question was never answered and I'm curious about it myself (though I don't recall ever reading that on the Satochip site:

"The Satochip hardware wallet has full BIP32 and BIP39 support and also supports the import of regular (non-BIP keys) such as vanity keys. Even more, private keys cannot be exported outside of the secure chip. Up to 16 regular keys can be imported on the chip. "

What does it mean? You can import into Satochip single private keys which were exported from, say, Core?
One by one?

One other thing that I hope isn't too far off-topic:  As I was reading the description of the DIY SIM wallet I noticed that it's badly in need of some editing.  As an example:

You want to upload your own firmware (Satochip, Satodime or Seedkeeper) but wants to use the smallest form factor as possible ?
That's sloppy English, and I always say if you're going to be writing English on a website it better be flawless (or as close to it as you can get).  You've got a space between possible and the question mark for some reason, and that's in addition to the incorrect form of want.  Isn't this much better:

You want to use the smallest form factor possible when using the Satochip, Satodime, or Seedkeeper firmware?  We've got you covered with a compatible javacard, pre-cut into a SIM card-sized chip.
Yeah I'm a grammar Nazi, but when I see pages like that and the writing is....bad (sorry, just giving it to you straight)....it's a turnoff, even if I like your product very much.  If you ever want some editing done, I'm cheap but thorough. 

We already had a talk recently but I will provide a detailed explaination for everyone.

Boy, I missed that link altogether when you posted it, and I'm going to check it out now.  One of the reasons I was browsing this section for Satochip info was to get answers to some of those same questions.
