I'm not sure doing that is possible on the AT&T network. I'm pretty sure a user's SIM number is tied uniquely to a device's phone number and IMEI number to form the active account. If the RAZR is inactive, I don't think powering the phone on with an active SIM chip will bring it back to the network. You'd have to call Cingular to reactivate the device, and more or less explain what you're doing.
I'm not sure how it all works with personal phone accounts, but I know that at least in an enterprise environment, putting an active Cingular SIM into an inactive phone does nothing. I don't see why it would be different for personal accounts.
