Sprint does not have let you buy a phone else where...they can say only phones bought directly through them counts....the point of it is they can't identify one or the other so they assume they are subsidizing all devices...
ME personally I think all phones should be allowed on all networks and we should only pay for service...those that want to subside can do the contract thing >.>
