    So you absolutely NEED that Nokia phone? My dad walked in with an unlocked Motorola Cliq XT and they activated it for him with no questions asked. Also, how good is the service quality?

    It has to be the Nokia e71, that's the only Straightalk phone with a SIM card that works in other phones. The quality of service is the same as AT&T's, except the 3G has a lower priority than an actual AT&T customer. My speed average 1.0 Mbps, and on a good day is 3.5mbps

    Okay can I buy the Nokia on eBay or do I have to go to Wal-Mart? I'd like to save some money if possible.

    Update: After a little research the the nokia 6790 also works, and only costs $50.

    The SIM card MUST say something very similar to TF64PSIMC4. If it does not have the P it will not work. So when you open the phone, check the SIM card's number.

    Wal-Mart is the best, if the SIM won't work then you can return it and swap for another. Buying them used is highly NOT recommended.
