Any other help is appreciate It looks like u purchased a new phone which is still sim locked. Have u paid extra for any services which enables you to unlock the phone so your sim will work? If you don't, then it won't work. Sim unlock should cost around $15. like this service here: http://cgi.ebay.com/Unlock-AT-T-Cingular-S...id=p3286.c0.m14
