DIAR,

Note the additional qualifying language in VZW's full presentation of NE2 benefits. Reproduced here in the interest of full disclosure...

From the very same masters of generosity and the King's English who have decreed that the word "Unlimited" shall henceforth mean "a limit of 5GB" (or is it now 4GB?):

Our New Every Two program can provide you with the latest in digital phone technology every two years...that we, in our sole and arbitrary opinion, deem adequate; that is sufficiently dumbed down and locked down that we may minimze support costs and maximize proprietary content sales; and that we shall sell to you at the highest possible price, and according to the most restrictive ToS, so as to offset fully the value of your NE2 and enhance our profitability; and subject to renewal of your service agreement for two years, or the duration of your lifetime, whichever is less. And Verizon Wireless is the first company to offer it.
