Hey. I can't seem to do a search right now but I have a question. I'm considering buying an unlocked iPhone is it possible to get the plan for the phone at a later time without having to buy a new phone. I've tried multiple google searches, but I can't seem to be able to get an answer. Essentially, I'm wondering if it's possible to buy a plan without buying a phone.

Also, because I'm still in the process of establishing credit, do you think I will still have to pay the ($500) security deposit?
 
I think what you'll want to get an acct with a phone for the actual carrier..used, cheap, whatever. Get it activated and then toss the sim in the iPhone. Boom!
