Don't you think there are people out there that would pay $50 to get another $600 phone that works? [without the service, but you can use skype to make calls... or just use it as a regual PDA]
IDK... I just thought it was a bit strange

I suppose they could do that, and there are people who pay the $7 a month for years and never make a claim, so I'm sure that nobody is losing money. Plus they also take a risk by doing that. Say they get their phone and make a claim a month later and now have their phone and a pda they sell/give away/keep for a pda, then 6 months later they get pushed into a pool with their phone in their pocket. It will be another 6 months before they can get their phone replaced (my understanding is one replacement claim in 12 months) and even if they kept the old one, it cannot be activated.
