How to activate $30 T-mobile plan.

Hello Android people,

I'm new here, so please bear with me in case I mess up somewhere.

I just bought a Galaxy Nexus(HSPA+ version) and I'm planning on using it with T-mobile's 30$ unlimited plan. I don't talk on my phone at all, so this plan should be perfect for me. What I did was, I went out and bought a nokia phone from the T-mobile website(it was cheaper than the sim). Their instructions ask to eventually use the Product number(or something similar) of the phone during activation. My questions is: Should I first activate the plan with the nokia phone and then pop the sim in the Nexus, or try to activate the plan using the Nexus info. Generally speaking, from having a lot of experience with unlocked phones, I was gonna go with the first option, but I do wanna hear what you guys think.

Thank you so much! ;)

Did simply changing the phone that the sim card was in work? I'd like to know because I might try something like that myself.
 
I'm yet to give it a shot. The shipment of my Galaxy Nexus got delayed :(. It should get here next week. I will post as soon as I try it.
 
It worked. The steps I took.

  1. I went to tmobile.com/prepaidactivation
  2. I filled out all of the details
  3. I used the IMEI number of the phone(located under battery), not the NOKIA

Hope it helps. :)
