New York, Baby!
I'm going to NYC next week and would like to find out if I can just pick up a PAYG sim for it. I use o2 here, but my phone is unlocked so I should be able to use any providers SIM card.

Are there any places in New York that I can buy a Pre Pay sim card?
 
dont be silly, if the phone is unlocked he shouldnt have a problem sticking a prepaid sim into it, even if its just to make calls,

on a sidenote, if youre on an O2 contract you do get international traveller service so calls are a bit cheaper than regular roaming

you can buy a pre paid sim anywhere in ny, just depends if you want tmobile or at&t, i dont see it being a problem to activate the iphone with a pre paid sim since your iphone is unlocked.:D
 
Awesome, I unlocked it originally when I still had an Orange contract, then when that ran out I decided it was cheaper per month to use PAYG on O2, I was just unsure if you can get a sim card on its own in the USA.
