family contract? Ok so I'm wondering if the salesman was trying to scam me at the store. I'm part of an old Alltel family plan and had my phone up for renewal. Of course we are now Verizon by force, and when I tried to upgrade my blackberry to a Droid 2 I was told I have to switch to a Verizon plan for the entire contract for all 5 phones.

However Jan 2010 my brother purchased a Droid 1 and didn't have to do this, he just upgraded the phone.

Between Jan and now did Verizon suddenly change their rules or something? What gives?
