Author Looking for an AT&T Cell Phone

My LG phone just died, and I like the plan I had with AT&T (Free2Go).
I need to find a phone that I can move my SIM card into. Any ideas?

Look on E-Bay. Virtually ny phone that you might want is there and most are
unlocked allowing you to simly swap the SIM to the new phone.

Unless I'm really confused (which does happen) isn't Free2Go on the
older TDMA (IS-136) network and doesn't use SIMs? If that's the case
that you need a phone for use on the AT&T TDMA network you'll need to
get a replacement phone from either eBay or perhaps on craigslist.org.
TDMA phones do not use SIMs so there would be no phone you could
switch it to.

Siemens S-46 phones use SIM cards and do TDMA.

So? It still can't be used for Free2Go service The S46 is a dual
mode phone that's a "transitional" phone for people who still want to
keep TDMA but want GSM service.
