I recently sold an Amp'd Kyocera Angel handset on eBay, and was disappointed to later learn that Amp'd requires all subscribers to purchase a new phone from Amp'd directly. They are the only carrier that I know of in the world that has this policy; all other carriers allow giving or selling phones to others.

Amp'd policy seems self-defeating to me, and borders on fraud. Their policy takes locking phones one step further, locking to an individual rather than locking to the operator.

What do you think?
