Your SIM came "pre-activated." You can use it in any GSM phone that's either unlocked or locked to Rogers. Note that the SIM records your phone number. You got that number when you bought the SO phone package.

If by "activate" you mean top up the airtime on your $100 voucher then yes, you can do that with any phone as long as your SO SIM is in that phone.

Hi, I just bought a 100 dollar voucher and a nokia phone + sim card from 7-11
Do I HAVE to use the nokia phone that the sim card came with to activate it, or can I take the sim card out of the phone, but it in my other unlocked sony ericsson phone and activate it there? Thanks for any help!
