Letter I got from cingular regarding SIMcard

I recieved a letter from cingular stated that I need to get a new 64k sim card. DO they know what card people are using and how do they know this? DO I have to get this new card or what will happen if I just stay with my 32k card? Why do they want me to get the new 64k card?
Thanks

It is for your own benefit. A 64K SIM card will give you better service. It'll be less likely that you drop a call with a 64K sim card.

Would his service be disconnected eventually if he stayed with the 32k card?

No; it won't be disconnected.

What does "Unauthorized SIM" mean? I had someone bring a Cingular phone in to me earlier today that wanted to activate it on a Verizon prepay account. It said "Unauthorized SIM." I've never worked with GSM carriers so I'm pretty stupid when it comes to GSM phone error messages.

It could be that:
SIM is not activated.
Other carrier's SIM card.
Line is not active.

I kinda figured it meant "Initial Programming Needed," but I'm bored as hell so I thought I'd ask.
