Sorry, won't work. Verizon uses CDMA network technology, Cingular uses GSM/UMTS. The technologies are not compatible.

goto your local Corporate AT&T Retail Store. Tell them your interested in a RAZR and that you saw they were Free online and that you are interested in doing business with them ::insert Reps Name Here that your talking to::: .

With any luck, if you have reached out to a store with a good rep, they will price match the online price for you and get the phone for free with a new 2 year plan.

good luck!

OP - do you currently have Cingular/AT&T? Did you buy the phone on your own because you are still under contract? Jay was correct in saying that you cannot use the Verizon phone since the two companies use different networks.
