John,

The difference is that in either case, there is no reason to expect it to work with Ethanol or with another carrier. As I said, it's standard practice to lock phones.

something,

They could easily justify an ETF simply based upon contract pricing. If you are a distributor for, say, mobile phones and you have a retailer sign a contract saying that they will buy so many a month for a specified price and then they back out halfway through the contract, there should be an early termination fee because that price was based upon the fact that they would buy the full amount over the time period. The other thing is, they offer non-contract pricing and it's significantly more expensive per minute and per kilobyte, so obviously, the price you're getting is singularly dependent upon the understanding that you will be purchasing service from them for 24 months. And secondly, you seem to have thought it was fair enough when you signed the contract, none of these terms were declared after-the-fact.
