How do I import SIM card contacts?

Oh, I finally was able to run the importer by simply rotating the screen.  (Silly me!)  But I don't see any way of using it to import SIM card contacts.  It asks whether to import data from another application or from a single file.  If I select "application", I just get a message saying that it can't find any data to import.  And if I select "file", it asks me to select a file, but where do I find the contacts stored on the SIM card?  I don't see it anywhere on the file system; the SIM card storage also doesn't seem to be mounted as a separate filesystem.
