====================
Activating a Used Cell Phone
Activating a used cell phone requires either no action or just a very simple step, depending on which service provider you use. In cellular service there are two main competing network technologies: GSM (Global System for Mobile Communications) and CDMA (Code Division Multiple Access). The main GSM carriers in the United States are Cingular Wireless, which recently merged with AT&T Wireless, and T-Mobile USA. Major CDMA carriers are Sprint PCS, Verizon and Virgin Mobile. There are also several smaller cellular companies on both networks.
In the United States only GSM phones use SIM (Subscriber Identity Module) cards. The removable SIM card allows phones to be instantly activated when an active SIM card is plugged in as long as both the SIM card and the phone are for the same service provider.
On the other hand, CDMA carriers in the U.S. require proprietary handsets that are linked to one carrier only and are not card-enabled. To activate a CDMA phone, the carrier must deactivate the old phone then activate the new one. The old phone becomes inactive. To avoid any activation charge, CDMA service providers usually offer free online cell phone activation. For example, you may activate your Verizon phones for free at https://myaccount.verizonwireless.com/vzs/renew/activatesplash.jsp. To do that, you will need to provide the serial number, called ESN, of the new phone. For each CDMA phone we sell, the ESN number is available on its item description page.

Can I use my Tri-Band GSM phone abroad? afa [August 8, 2006 - 3:10]2 August 12, 2006 - 1:10 afa, if you got the phone from Cingular, by default the phone is locked to Cingular's service. So you need to get it unlocked to use it in Asia. Usually it takes $10, $15 bucks to do that. Some free sites for DIY: http://www.peters1.dk/webtools/nokia/nokiaonline.php?sprog=en
