How do I get My unlimited Internet sidekick sim card to work in my unlocked iPhone?

1 Answer

Answer :

I’m no expert at this, but I know that if you look at the AT&T website, there are different types of data plans, and another just for the iPhone. It’s possible that the iPod might access calling and texting the same your sidekick did, but access the data plan differently. Once again, I’m no expert, just a speculation.
