Microsoft is currently testing a cellular data app that will let Windows 10 users connect to mobile networks without a contract, The Verge reports.

The app, which is already advertised on the company's Windows Store, requires a "Microsoft SIM card," according to the listing.

The Verge speculates that through this app and SIM card, Microsoft could be planning to create its own mobile virtual networks to allow Windows 10 users to connect to other carriers.
