so there IS a SIM card for the Sprint Galaxy S3 SPHL710, (according to the SIM info app, and if you look at the application manager under "all" its first) but its hidden under plastic. I was wondering if under that plastic, its soldered or simply there like normal SIM cards.

I wonder because if either:
a. a hack is developed which might open up a disabled GSM radio (seeing as all the versions are nearly identical) and I wanna go overseas with it or change carriers
b. Sprint does what Verizon does, issues an OTA to make the phone global ready and I wanna then use a local SIM abroad
