T-mobile JUMP! questions

I signed up for JUMP! (only 2 bucks more than the device protection I'm already paying for) and have some questions, I'll get right to them:

1. So when I switch devices (in 6 months), do I just continue paying the existing payment plan or does the balance increase back to the full purchase price (for example, I'll probably only owe about $100 on my phone at that point, would I just continue paying off that $100/lump summing it or is my obligation the full purchase price of the new phone, divided into the same payments)

2. If I pay off my phone, every time I upgrade is it just the down payment price and do I automatically own the new phone if I chose to not jump again, or do I start a new payment plan for the new phone?

Stupid questions, I just haven't been able to find clear answers.

Thanks!

From what I understand, the balance resets, you turn in the phone, then you get the new one and start a new payment plan.
