what kind of phone do you have? if you have sprint, verizon, you need to give them a call in order to get service. if you have t-mobile, at&t, cingular, all you need is a sim card. i saw alot off ebay and they are pre activated. all you have to do is put that sim inside your phone and your ready to go. this only work if you have t-mobile phone and buy t-mobile sim card, the same with at&t and cingular. the one they selling off ebay is prepaid sim card.

Uhhh, well thats half true if u have an unlocked handset then it can b used w\ any carrier and also if they are TDMA then ur outta luck other than this company they stop activating @ the end of this month. www.gobeyondwireless.com
