i have an apple iphone 4 and a new classic. why do i get all texts on the iphone but none on the new classic? i've got the same phone number plugged in on both devices.

i want to keep my classic -- but i cannot -- if i cannot get all the texts sent to me by everyone who has my number.

wouldn't both devices require a sim card with your number programmed on it?
