How I did it: i got really tired of being a slave to my iphone, a device i've come to loathe for its scenestery-ness and inability to functional properly for me.  i got really tired of being a slave to a contract and pawn of apple.  i wanted more freedom in my plan and to pay much less.

i researched online, went to a sprint store to check out the phone, and then found it at bestbuy for lowest price.

Resources: look into a cheaper pre-paid option like virgin mobile.  the only reason i did it was because i updated the OS on my iphone 3g and it sucked and crapped out alot.  looked into other non-contract options, since i don't know what my future holds after this year (staying in US for a while?  abroad?) so didn't want to sign another 2 yr contract.  found out virgin mobile just started offering an android phone on their $25/mo plan and it is a perfect fit for me and our current situation.
