Prepaid SIM cards in US?

Some recent threads got me thinking, are there prepaid SIM cards available
in the US? I've seen prepaid phones at Radio Shack and such, but never
SIMS.
If/when they are available, do they give you another phone # or use your
current one?
AFAIK, the SIM is what has the #, so I'd think it'd change.
If so, does the phone also send it's (I forget what, IMF or some such) ID
# still, or is it totally anonymous like a whole prepaid phone would be
(if you paid cash)?
Just one of those things I wonder about, not that I actually would need it
now.
