Ordered my MicroSIM cutter from DealExtreme for US$20, though it's since dropped to US$17.43, shipping included. I placed the order on 11th July 2010 and received it on the 22nd, about eleven days, likely a supplier stock issue.
Finally, SingTel supports MicroSIM cards in its MultiSIM plans, though at twice the price of normal SIMs. Only one MicroSIM is allowed in any combination, so with four SIMs just one can be MicroSIM and the rest normal.
SingTel offers three MicroSIM-only plans: 7.2Mbps at S$37.30, 14.4Mbps at S$44.20 and 21Mbps at S$53.80 a month. All include 50GB of data capped at S$94.16, come without a dongle, and the cards are sold at all 11 SingTel shops.
On Saturday, 29th May, StarHub and M1 began selling MicroSIM cards, with SingTel following tomorrow, 1st June. It's unclear whether the telcos allow MicroSIM in MultiSIM or restrict it to data plans. Either way, scissors will do.
It seems SingTel has already begun preparing MicroSIM cards. According to forum user MorpheusV, when he signed up for SingTel's 7.2Mbps two-year contract bundled with a Huawei E5832, the salesperson told him the plan's SIM would be a MicroSIM.
