Or you can spread that $520 it over 20 months without interest, pay that on your monthly bill, and still get the no-contract price. A G2 is $199 with the 2 year contract and $499 with no contract. My understanding from their website is that your first installment is due when you take home the phone, so your down payment on a new G2 would be $25. So using nice round numbers on the prices, 24 months @ $80/month + $200 = $2120 versus 24 months @ $60/month + 20 months @ $25/month to pay off the phone = $1940 So you save $180 over 2 years, and your up-front payment is only $25 instead of $200.
