freetalk to vonage & a UTStarcom F1000 help please

Hi

I've just swapped over from Freetalk to vonage, my phone number is still to
be ported though. I went to the vonage site and liked the look of the WiFi
UTStarcom F1000 so I tried to buy one. No so easy.

They will only sell one as a new contract you cant add one to a existing
contract even though its only 5 hours old or a transfer from Freetalk.

So I asked if I buy one elsewhere like from ebay can I connect it to vonage,
I got the answer I was expecting NO.

The only way is to buy one with a new number and cancel it during the first
month and then transfer it to your first account !

Now I like to take people at the word but I have this horrible feeling that
once purchased they will turn around and say no way if you cancel it that's
it.

Has anyone here found away around this problem ?

TIA

Brit

Get it in writing, perhaps.
