Can they proved that you used an off brand charger? Unless you are dumb enough to tell them you used a Wally World charger, I wouldn't think they could prove it. Of course my question is, since these phones come with mini-USB to USB cords to sync with your computer, wouldn't that qualify it as an "approved" form of charging.

I agree that they could abuse it, in these days people are cutting corners every way the can.
