So it seems, even some of the Verizon users in this thread have eluded to that.  My Verizon Pre 3 is CDMA (no SIM card involved), as all US Verizon devices were before 4G, so when the time comes to give it up, I'll either buy a cheap phone with a SIM card in it, or order a SIM card under the "bring your own device" option and try to activate it with someone else's phone.  It just worries me a little that when you try that option, and get to the IEMI portion of the song and dance, it says "not supported", so they could potentially shut it off at any time.  Buying a cheap throw away phone with a SIM card in it might be the best way to go.
