I'm considering getting the Incredible (terrible name) when it comes out but I really don't want to pay the $600 retail. What are my options to lower the cost? How much can I sell my S2 for assuming I make an insurance claim on my current cracked one and receive a nice new one? Is there any way VZW will let me upgrade?

If VZW is anything like Bell, which I hear they actually are, you may be rather stuck. One thing you can do is accept a three year extension, that got me the S2 at about half price.

I think brand new S2s, unlocked, go for between $300 - $400 on eBay. Minus your $89 insurance deductible, you would have at most $300 to out toward the Incredible. Of course if you wait until you're ten months into your current contract you can pay a $30 fee and get the two year upgrade price at the one year mark. Just requires re-upping for two years.

I would just stick it out until your NE2 is up......the cost of the refurb through insurance, selling it, shipping it, etc. you are going to be out a few hundred.
If your base plan is $59.99 or higher, you can get a 2 year upgrade price at 12 months. If the Storm 3 doesn't get some serious upgrades I will be joining you. An Evo like device on Verizon with LTE would cause many Storm users to jump ship IMO.
