No, it will NOT work. Cingular's phones and network are GSM, which requires a sim card in order to work. Verizon's phones and network are CDMA, which doesn't use sim cards. They are two completely different technologies and are not compatible with each other.

No. That GSM SIM card will not work in Verizon Wireless' CDMA phone. CDMA doesn't support SIMs, so there's no slot to put your card into.
