Smartphone termination is $35o. Regular termination is $175. I used to think that this was ridiculous, but when you think about how most smartphone are really small computers that retail for $550, it's their way of making sure they're not giving away a phone without recouping their loss from having you as a customer for at least 2 years. If you quit the contract, it's the same as you paying full price for the phone; you just do it at the end, not the beginning.
