Yeah, the one year contract with the phone being free is a good deal for the 
customer, the alternative is to buy the phone outright but you'd probably pay 
the same monthly fee so instead of paying 240 for the first year at 20 bucks 
a month, you'd pay the 200 for the phone plus 240 for the service.
