This is SO simple! Got to Best Buy or Walmart and buy a GO Phone. Remove your sim card, place it in the go phone and then call to activate the new phone. You'll have a brand new phone and you won't have to renew a contract.
Mind you, they don't have droids or the fancy stuff like that, but they do have nice touch phones. I've done this twice and love it!
