Using Multiple Phones with one sim card

I have been a cingular customer for years and am getting ready to upgrade from my current SE T637 to a Treo 650. I would love to be able to have a secondary phone to use on the occassion that I dont want to carry around the larger treo..either keeping the SE of maybe getting the Razr. Is it possible to purchase the treo so that it is set up where i can remove the sim card and pop it in a Razr or SE and everything still work rite? Thanks for the help

If you keep your phonebook on your SIM it wont be a problem at all. The only thing I've run into when doing this on my own Treo is that the Hot Sync manager updates numbers from your handset memory, not the sim card, so you end up with multiple entries under the same name. You can easily sort them (under personal categories or just use the SIM book), but as far as I have seen, the default phonebook remains the unsorted version of every number on both the SIM and the handset.

Other than the phonebook issues can I just buy a secondary phone like the razr straight from cingular and move the sim card back and forth between to two phones and be able to make a recieve calls normally?
