Verizon does not use sim cards up until recently near the end of 2008 i heard they will be accepting phones from different carriers to use on their network as long as the phone has been unlocked. I'm not sure when or if they will even go through with this, which would be nice but that is what i heard..

that is not true they will not take phones from other plans

No. The only Verizon Wireless phones that use SIM cards are Global Phones. SIM cards are only used for the GSM technology. Verizon Wireless runs off of the CDMA technology.

HOWEVER, you can activate a Verizon Wireless phone on an existing account by dialing *228 pressing SEND then choosing option 3.
