It's a good thought, but I'd also be required to trade-in an eligible device. Or, in my case, four eligible devices.

I suppose I could buy four junkers on eBay, trade those in, get four new pieces of junk and sell those on eBay.

Frankly, I'll probably just wait it out with AT&T, or get close enough that the remaining fees aren't too painful.

Instead of the nonsense with T-Mo, I'd rather just get locked into them for a period of time (six months? a year?) for them to pay the early term fees, and have no equipment interaction with them at all.
