So I built a SIM card reader. What’s next? Obviously, I want to test it by reading my SIM card. For Mac (and Linux), you can download PySimReader. It requires pySerial and wxPython to run. Unfortunately, I could not get wxPython to build and install via MacPorts (ticket 20952).
It did not look like there was a quick and easy fix for this issue. I decided to install Windows version of pySimReader. It is a standalone package (no additional software is required). I installed a driver for Trip Lite (formerly) USB Serial Adapter but that was all I needed to do.
Here’s a screenshot of pySimReader getting information from my SIM card reader.
I will look into getting the PySimReader working on my Mac soon.
