Let me get this straight.....

200$ = 8gb iPhone with 2 year contract
600$ = 8gb iPhone with no contract.

Is the early termination fee 175$? Why not get it with contract, cancel the next day, pay the ETF and basically get the same phone for 375$.

Yes/No?

You may have to return the phone?

I've never heard of having to return the actual phone. My parents still have a couple mobile phones they used in 2000, though of course service is no longer active on them.

Good job with the math. Here's a writeup about it from TUAW.

You would have to wait 30 days to cancel, otherwise, it would be rang up as a return.

Yes, but if you cancel within 30 days, you will not have to pay the ETF. You will, however, lose the activation or upgrade fee plus will have to pay for calls/data made during that period. That's AT&T's trial period policy. After 30 days ETF applies, but you can keep the phone.
