The BB plan doesn't. Anyone have any suggestions? I didn't want to create a whole new thread for this question.

I would suggest going with TEP. I've read the other responses and saw the 2 different experiences with BB, but it seems like a YMMV situation.
Look at it this way; If something should happen to your phone and you have TEP, if there aren't any refurbs you get a brand new one. If there are refurbs, you have to wait at most, what, 2 days? I personally think it's just an ease of mind having TEP.
The downfall to taking TEP now however, is your coverage won't start for 20 or 30 days I believe. Or it may start, but the soonest you can make a claim is 20 days out. It's in the TEP brochure and possibly on Sprint's site.
If you go with TEP, I say keep the BB for another month then cancel. Yeah you're paying for insurance twice, but it beats a lapse in coverage.
