Hi,

MY TP1 that got upgraded to a TP2 was from Alltel. I was an Alltel customer for about 6 years, and then I was forced by merger into Verizon service around October 23rd this year when the big switch happened.

I think Asurion is Alltel's insurance, but I could be wrong; I thought Verizon used a different insurance provider or insured themselves. Anyway, one thing I am sure of is that my phone did not affect my insurance coverage in any way (more than 1 replacement per 12mo and they cancel your coverage!) because my TP1 was still under a 1yr manufacturer's warranty. Personal Communications Devices (who SUCK) is who Verizon deals with and directs traffic to etc, I believe most of the phones come from them.
