    No. You need to stay with a blue legacy AT&T SIM to keep a legacy plan.

    There's really no help to offer you. It's Cingular's network and
    service, and they make the rules.

    That's simply a matter of the "home" network and the comparative signal
    strength in a given area, since both networks support the same EGPRS
    speeds. It's a common misconception that handsets will pick the network
    with the best signal -- they will actually prefer their home network as
    long as the signal is "usable" even when the other network has a much
    better signal. This difference will go away when the networks are fully
    integrated
