Apple IPHONE

You seem to have your bases covered. You're completing the your contract and using the services with an iPhone. Unless they have some weird clause in the contract that we don't have on this side of the border.

Give them a call, and ask them.

Outside of Portland, OR,
on my 15" MacBook Pro 2.4 GHz, early 2008, Mac OS X 10.6.4,
& iPhone 3GS, iOS 4, nearby.

My thought is to buy an unlocked iPhone 4 and cut the SIM card on her 3G into Micro Sim size and put it in her new phone. I think the phone would work just fine, same phone number same plan and everything, am I right or is there a catch 22 that I don't know about?
