My Samsung Blast(cellphone) is a piece of shit. I can't even turn it on anymore because the buttons aren't responding.  

Can I just my SIM card out and put it in a new phone?

Yes, you can. When you buy a new phone, just get an upgrade.

lol no wonder!!!

On my AT&T Motorola cell phone, I saw an option that said NETWORK, then showed a host of other cell phone providers.  I was wondering why that was, but now I think I understand.

well, AT&T is a GSM cellular provider. there's also other GSM cell providers. in a way, it's relevant, but not really. you can use an unlocked GSM phone with any carrier, but, if you're just gonna buy a replacement phone, make sure it's unlocked, or it's specific to your carrier.
