I'm presently a Verizon Wireless subscriber, and have been for some time. Presently, I have a Motorola Razor 2, and I am in need of a smart phone in order to synch with Microsoft exchange at work to get my e-mail & keep track of my train wreck of a schedule.

I'm not eligible for my upgrade until next May. I was considering purchasing a Treo off E-bay and activating it under my current account. I've never tried something like this before, so I was looking for a little guidance.

I know to check the ESN with Verizon before I purchase to make sure it's a good ESN and I understand I will have to upgrade to a data plan.

My questions are;

1: Will purchasing a phone 3rd party, activating it in place of the one I presently have and ditching my Razor 2 trigger the ETF?

2: Would it make more sense to switch to another carrier with a 1 year contract, and then bop back over to VZW? I would like to avoid this, I'm very happy with my Verizon service.

3: Suggestion. I'm very open to it. The goal is to get a handle on my schedule and do it centrally via Outlook/Exchange through my employer's servers. Keeping everything in one spot is important.

Thanks for the help,
Bill
