Needless to say, you have to watch your talk & text usage more carefully. I bought my phone from Amazon for $150 and added $100 credit which expires in 1 year (lower denominations expire in 30~90 days).
If you don't need cellphone service, though, just buy an unlocked Android smartphone. You'll find much better models.

Thanks; I'll have to check it out. I need the following features, otherwise there's no need to switch from my iPod touch:
- 1 GHz CPU / 512 MB RAM
- dual cams - front (VGA) / rear (3MP AF w/ flash)
- GPS / compass
- Android 2.3
- iPod touch pricing
