Well, *twiddling thumbs*, I have T-Mobile pre-paid which basically means any new phone I get I would have to pay out of pocket for. So I went ahead and bit the bullet. I had an unlocked phone imported and just switched my SIM card. I love this thing. It's an LG touch screen and tiny. Not so good for touch screen but cute. It is only out in Europe and Asia at the moment.

Unlocked phones are definitely fun and envy worthy.
