backwards compatibility

i have an i95cl w/email and web services. i am getting a bb7520, which
has a new SIM. my old sim works fine in the BB, less the address book
and email. of course nextels "support" says the sim won't work - but it
seems to just fine. i will need to cancel the web services on the old
sim on the i95 - and my guess is that nextel will want me to register
the new sim with the BB. the 2 questions i have a

when the new sim is activated for the bb can i still use my i95 as just
a phone with that bb sim, as there are times i just want a phone that
acts like a phone.

second...does anyone know if they can simply add the bb webservices on
to my existing sim?

thanks!

There is no backwards compatibility due to the size of the data the SIM can hold. You can put the old i95 into the BB, yes. But the SIM from the BB would never work in the i95. i95 SIM = 32k, BB SIM = 64k. The i95 would not know how to read it.
