What Brad suggests works fine for widish borders, but with narrow borders, beware: the screen can't resolve fractions-of-a-pixel, so if the the border is narrow you may get an imbalance when you resize. As an extreme example, I've added a 1-pixel border that way, long ago, and lost it on TWO sides on resizing...
The safest way to do it is this: PP your image and save as a psd file, then flatten it and resize it to 640 pixels minus twice the amount of the desired border width, then add the border back as described by Brad. So if you wanted a 3-pixel border all around, you'd resize to 634 pixels and add back 6 pixels of canvas size.
