If I understand the settlement correctly, the "refund" is in fact a credit towards the purchase of a new VZW phone. according to the post by "xtgirl", we will be receiving a letter prompting our V710s to be mailed in to VZW, and a refund check will be sent to us "within 30 days."

Practical question: if we cant buy a new phone until the refund/credit check arrives, then we're without a phone for period between mailing the phone in and receiving the check to buy a new phone. Short of digging up an old phone, swapping the contacts and phone number to it (for $10 & $20, respectively), then we're without a phone for 30 days, am I right?

I also assume that there will be an expiration on this refund check. So, if we were to buy a new phone ...

Another thread implied that the use of the refund check enables the cancellation of your current contract and a "re-start" of a new 2-year contract and the discounted price of a new phone that goes along with that re-start.

If this is the case, then it would be possible to buy a new cheap phone now using NE2 (effectively free under $100), and when the check finally arrives, buying a new expensive phone then (moto q for ex.) still at the discounted new phone price (but no NE2 credit, which I understand to not be in addition to the refund check anyway).

Thoughts?
