New SIM for LTE?

[2stepsahead]

Hey guys, I read somewhere that I need to get a new sim card to take advantage of HSPA+/LTE on the SkyRocket. I bought the phone brand new from a friend who upgraded his account. I called 2 different ATT stores and they are insisting that I could use the sim from my current iPhone 3GS, and that the 4G LTE sim is the same, and they want $25 for the new sim. Is that what it costs? An authorized retailer for ATT told me he sells them for $20.

So I DO need this new sim card right? (despite ATT reps telling me otherwise)

Thanks

Depends on how recent your sim card is. If it is more than 2 years old you should probably get a new one. That said, you do not need a LTE SIM card. Your account just needs to be provisioned for LTE.

Can't believe they are going to charge you for a new sim card. They give them away like candy!

You can just goto any corporate at&t store and get a sim for free

I called 2 corporate stores, both said $25. Maybe because it's Manhattan, I dunno.

edit: Called one outside of Manhattan and they said they will give me one for free.

When I got my Skyrocket they gave me a new sim card and did not use the one in my Atrix.
