Yes, it is that simple.  It was the easiest phone upgrade I've ever
done.  Well, it's that simple as far as the phone service goes.  For
the Palm upgrade bit... 

There are enough differences between the 650 and 680 that you must not
transfer your data over via the "hard reset" method of simply plugging
it in and doing a restore-sync.  The instructions will be included in
the box.

I +told+ Cingular I got a new phone.  They didn't care.
