Yes you can, but it won't let me link from AT&T .com. Stupid. Just do a search on AT&T for "sim card" under wireless products and you'll find the link.

Cool, there's an at&t store not too far from here.

I had AT&T once. Turned it back in before the month was up, so I got out from under the contract. I worked for Verizon, so I'll never use their service. I had T-Mobile for a long time, but I never travelled, and I heard the stories about service problems as well.

Net10 has no service issues, as they pay everyone to use their towers. They inaugurated the 10 cents plans that everyone is now using.

I have friends and family members that worked for Verizon as well their customer service is very poor and their sales reps very often lie they love selling ISP connection speeds that they know for a fact that the customer can not get do to location. Friend of mine worked customer support for them and that was a very common customer complaint.I have also heard that Verizon techs have been caught sabotaging competing companies equipment.

Straight Talk is the pre pay that you can buy at Wal Mart.I looked at their maps if you are going to use a non Android phone they have fairly good coverage (they must buy space from ATT and Verzion) For an Android phone the coverage area is not that good.

You can buy just a sim card from them as well.
