Hey, I have an iPhone 4s approximately 9 months into a 2 year contract and I want to get rid of it. Smartphones are not for me. So, basically, what is the routine for doing this?

Also, should I fail to find someone to take over the contract maybe I'll just take it home (UK) and sell it, presumably I'd have to get it unlocked first? Anyway, are there any consequences to this?

Thanks.

If you can find someone to take over your contract, you won't have to pay anything.

If you can't, you'll have to pay off the remainder of your phone and possibly a contract cancellation fee (not sure about the latter).

IIRC, they won't unlock your phone until it's paid off.

Haha. I couldn't do that. A new nose and a new phone would leave the rest of us mere mortals trailing in the dust.
