upgrade from VT220 to VT551

I'm thinking of upgrading form VT220 to VT551. Does this mean that I
can buy the VT551 from Cingular and swap the memory chip or do the
have to activate the VT551 themselves.

Thanks, the word "SIM" is what I was looking for. Anyway, when I log
into Cingular to order the upgrade, they want to charge me an extra
$18.00 activation fee. Doesn't seem right if all the user does is swap
the SIM.

Call Customer Care and ask to have the "activation fee" waived.
