Sprint isn't going to let you out of contract for moving to an area that you don't have service. Not long ago, I moved to an area where I had no service at all and they refused to let me out of contract. I told them it's BS that they want me to pay for phone service that they can't provide to me. I called several different reps, departments, etc... and they said there is no way they can waive the early termination fee. They all told me the same thing... that the 'system' won't allow it. I think it's BS.
Your best bet is to sell it on ebay. Put it up on there with a .99 cent starting bid with no reserve (7 day auction) and I can guarantee you will get everything you want for the phone and then some. The reason for the .99 cent starting bid and no reserve is because it will draw a lot of attention to the auction and cause more people to bid on it/watch it. Come to the auction end and I'm sure the bids will go over $400. The 6800 is a 'hot' item right now so it will definitely have a bunch of people bidding on it. No need to worry about it selling for .99 cents. It won't. I've sold on ebay a lot and .99 cent starting bid auctions with no reserve are probably the best way to sell a popular item.
Don't give your phone away for someone taking over your contract. Sell it, get the money, and pay the Early Termination Fee to Sprint and be done with it. You'll still have money left over to put towards a new phone.
Good luck!
