    All this done in the middle of the contract. I have an X now, but might get an iphone 4. Will my insurance transfer over to the iphone?

    Is there any hassle changing to the iphone from a droid x, other than the normal *228 etc?

    No it won't change over, the insurance is different prices. You have to activate an iPhone with iTunes also, not *228.

    Is there a way to get insurance on the new phone?

    Call VZW and add insurance. They'll tell you the rate, deductible and if your device Is eligible for Insurance.

    You can only add insurance to a newly purchased device, within 30 days. For an iPhone, it's 10.99 a month... deductible is $169 for 16gb... and it covers absolutely everything (i.e. lost, stolen damaged, extended manufacture warranty).

    By newly purchased, you mean FROM Verizon though?

    I would be getting this iphone from a user on this board, most likely. Not Verizon.

    New from VZW, yes. You can't add insurance on equipment you bring.
