    I am just one of those people who would rather be positive, than waste money on something I can't use.

    I am on StraightTalk right now and I hate this phone I have, but all of the others aren't much better. At&t and Verizon are the only towers that can get signal where I live. The GoPhone has the only reasonable monthly pricing, but again, poor or expensive phones.

    A friend of mine has the GoPhone SIM in his iPhone 4, as do a lot of other people and it works fine. I don't care for the iPhone much at all. I just wanna know if I can literally use ANY GSM phone. Does it have to be unlocked, or can it be a previously contracted At&t phone? Can I test it out on my StraightTalk phone that runs off of At&t and has a SIM slot? That way I can use their plan until it runs out.

    Also, does it matter the plan? Will the $25, $50, or even 10 cents a minute plan work?

    Re: GoPhone With Any GSM Phone?

    One can use any AT&T phone or any unlocked phone with the proper bands as a GoPhone You can sign up for any GoPhone plan. Be advised that if the phone is recognized as a smartphone, data will not work without a separately purchased data package. The browser settings and MMS settings may have to be modified if you use that phone with Straight Talk. You can ony place the SIM cards from the three Nokia smartphones into another phone to use Straight Talk. The SIM cards from any other Straight Talk GSM phone will not work in any other phone.

    I greatly appreciate your feedback. I'm gonna buy a smartphone and hope everything works out. If not, I have a kick ass MP3 player. Lol.
