My fiance has the first Rumor and wants the Samsung Exclaim, would there be any problems buying the phone outright and doing an ESN change? Any help would be greatly appreciated :D Thanks in advance.
You will be good to go, the only phones that require the Everything plans are the Pre and the Instinct. If you get a PDA then you have to have a data plan of at least $25 to get the MIR

No it doesn't matter where the phones come from, they still require the everything plans. It is unfortunate yes, but at least there are only two phones that require it and they aren't even that great of phones. Well the pre is nice, but the instinct isn't.
