Only this.......
Turns out the FCC is as confused and worked up as everyone else, though, having fired off a 4-page communique to Verizon's veep of legal and external affairs today asking how customers are notified of the new ETF, how the prorating formula is calculated (hint: they don't like that you still pay $120 after 23 months of a 24-month contract), and how an "advanced device" comes to be, among other things. Riding on the letter are a few extra questions about inadvertent mobile web charges for customers that aren't signed up for a data plan, totaling nine paragraph-long queries that the feds want answered by December 17. Your move, Verizon. Quote:

Verizon: $350 Early Termination Fee Covers More Than Phones?
"The ETF is not limited to the recovery of the wholesale cost of the device over the life of the contract," Verizon told the FCC. "The ETF partially compensates Verizon Wireless for all the costs and risks of providing service, which include advertising, commission, store costs, and network costs."

I thought that only applies to smart phones. It would only make sense, since realistically most of them go for 400-500 a piece without contracts.
