have you thought about buying one from craigslist and playing with it? I mean android phones can make wifi calls/surf web so it's pretty much the same as an activated phone if you are able to connect to a wifi. Then you can sell it again on craigslist for the same that you bought it for. At least the older phones now aren't really depreciating as much, EVO 4g/Epic 4G are around $100-150 and I can't see them dropping below that. Not the "top" android phones now but good enough to try out android if you want a real android phone and not android port on tp2

I agree with the previous people about wp7 :S I tried it on tp2 and while I like it and can see myself using it, it's too simplistic that I'd regret not getting an android over it lol.
