Okay, because I'm so cheap.

Anyway, I have a broken phone and I don't want to buy a new phone, but use one of my older phones. I had a Nokia 6201i and that broke, and I have and older 3120 Nokia phone and I was thinking maybe I can just use that phone and still keep on using my same plan instead of having to buy another Nokia 6201i. I was just thinking though, would I need to be using the same SIM card that I had in my broken 6201i in order keep using my same plan?

You need to either switch SIM cards or get your SIM cloned.

I *love* my 3120.

It's the first phone I haven't wanted to upgrade the minute I was eligible.

Hope it lasts a long long time.

I loved my old 5260 - but I had to upgrade to go GSM. My sister works for Motorola and she gave me a Razr for Christmas 2 years ago.

All your account information and your plan is stored on the Sim Card. So no matter what phone you provided it's unlocked, you can use that phone with your monthly plan. Also helps if the phone is compatible with the gsm network your using.
