Hi bananagirl,

Yup. It sure can. The sim card holds all of the important information from the phone, so saving it is really worthwhile.

Good luck!

Hi Bananagirl,

Last weekend I accidently fell into my pool with my Motorola Razr in my pocket. My phone is toast, but my SIM card survived. I pulled the card out immediately and let it dry outdoors for a couple hours before trying it in another phone.

Still better to keep cell phones and SIM cards away from water!
