Re: RE

I applaud Verizon for making this move. I really think the Storm 2 started this. You can look on e-Bay and see people auctioning off Storm 2's for 400+ when you can get them from Verizon for 175 if your a regular customer signing a contract or a VIP customer for 125.

Actually, I think the deep discounts for the Original (Classic) Storm (and other BBs) started this.

There are six BlackBerries that are $50 or less with a two-year contract.

THere are *two* different Android phones (one from Motorola, and one from HTC), with the HTC model $100 with a two-year contract. (HTC DROID ERIS: »www.verizonwireless.com/b2c/stor···eId=5070)

There are those that want to break carrier-exclusivity (and make a tidy profit) by selling their subsidized handset on eBay or craigslist (or even in the local paper), and now they are mad that their scheme has been rather neatly derailed. VZW (nor any other carrier) doesn't do handset-exclusivity deals for the customer to rip them off, people.
