I did. Because by the time that I want to switch carriers, I'll be ready for a new phone anyhow. I might as well take the discount on the phone. If I don't take the discount, I still pay the same rates monthly anyhow.

What intelligent person would throw away money?

T-mobile gives you a $20/month discount. I agree that it doesn't make sense with the other carriers. An important issue is that the carriers operate on different bands so your phone is still tied to a specific carrier (if you want 3G to work).
