SIM Card Question Please

Archived from groups: alt.cellular.cingular (More info?)

If an AWS SIM card has already been used and the owner of the phone cancels
his service & sells the phone (with the SIM card still in it), can the new
owner activated a new line of service (AWS plan) and burn the new number
into the original SIM if a replacement AWS is not available?

Thanks in advance... Fred

The SIM card in question is AT&T, they are getting mighty hard to find.
