They stiffed me for 2 early termination fees, when noe of that was in any contract. When I asked to see the contract tey claimed I signed, nada, but they kept my money any way. I am happy with Verizon and will hnever go back to them. However, all cell companies at least in the US are scum. Exclusive phones suck - where is the FTC is all of this. We would be better off with a European type system shere things like this are illegal. THis is so typical of AT&T – they lie like a rug.

Buy a iPhone without a contract and buy your SIM from the provider with the best offer. A lot cheaper than other options and you have a iPhone not one of those other creepy toys. easy solution?

A lot cheaper than other options and you have a iPhone not one of those other creepy toys.

Sadly, I have read quite a few blog posts just like this one. I am currently a G1 user and my next phone will definitely be another android but only if it has a qwerty keyboard. The Cliq looks nice but I might hold out another year for Motorola to be on their 2nd gen version. Good luck.
