What is the difference between the orange SIM card and the 3G SIM card?

I broke the antenna off of my Samsung X427m GO-Phone which came with an
orange 64K SIM. So, I bought the cheapest go-phone I could find at Wall
Mart and put in the old sim and it works fine.

The new phone came with a 3G sim. Would there be any advantage to using
the 3G and would it be compatible with the Samsung (if I was to fix it)?

The new phone is a Motorola C139. I prefer the samsung as it has the
features I like.

There may be little difference other than the label. When I phoned
Cingular to ask which SIMs would work for WCDMA service with an
overseas 3G phone they said either the 3G SIM or a 64k SIM would work
fine. It was only 32k and smaller SIMs which were a problem.
