I've got a SIM from the old Omnipoint days.

It's working fine with one key exception:

   It only holds a small number of phone
   numbers in its memory.

So at present, some of the names/numbers are
stored on teh SIM, while others are in
the phone itself.

I take it a new SIM will have more memory
for such things, so everything can be stored
on the chip (and moved from phone to phone).

First, is this correct?

Second, can I just get a new SIM over the
counter at a t-mobile store and have them
activate it, there, with the old number?

and ...

Third, can they do a data dump from the
old SIM to the new one, or do I have to do
a one-by-one manual transfer to the phone
and then to the new SIM?

(Other suggestions about the transfer
cheerfully accepted).

Thanks

Just bring it into TMo and they can do it all.
