Verizon Phone Insurance Replaced Titan(6800) with Touch Pro(6850)

I felt that I wanted to share this with everyone because I feel fortunate.

On Saturday my screen was cracked and half the screen did not work. I called Verizon and talked to the insurance group Asurion about replacing my phone with an insurance claim.
Well to my surprise, they stated that they don't have any 6800 replacement phones in stock. They said that they only have the 6850 for replacements. I didn't know that the touch pro was the 6850! I said "sure!" and my new touch pro arrived today for the small insurance claim deductible fee of 50$.

I can post pics of my old phone and new phone to validate this with the claim.

Its interesting that Verizon is selling the touch pro for $350 w/ new accounts and that this is the price I would have to spend to upgrade to this device. But because I owned its previous model, and broke it, I can upgrade for only the 50$ insurance claim.

EDIT- See that sprint is doing the same thing - http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread...=56992&page=30
