Deal has been up for weeks on SD. Yesterday I went to the Hartford corporate store and got the ZMAX Pro for $38 after porting in one of my free accts from Tello. Reports are that some are able to port a number from TextNow. The reason it was $38 instead of $30 (usual charge for lowest monthly plan of 1 gig LTE plus unlimited 3g) was that manager insisted on purchase of "extras" like insurance as a matter of store policy. Deal has been YMMV. Phone can be unlocked in 3 months even if you only pay for 1 month of service. There is a "device unlock" app right on the phone to accomplish this.
