Great. I will only be using in Europe.

Hope Sprint will unlock mine in less than the 90 days into the new contract that I will be signing to get the iphone5 subsidized by Sprint for $ 199

Leaving for Europe in 6 weeks and didn't even order the new phone yet

VZW iPhone 5 comes unlocked so u don't have to worry if Verizon will unlock it for you....might be a better option than relying on Sprint...
I have nothing witty to write here....

I am on a Sprint plan now that has expired using with BB bold 9630 CDMA + GSM phone

 Sprint much cheaper than VZW so I think I will have to stick with them . Plus I am getting 18% or so discout.   CMIIW

Funny how things change Sprint BB came unlocked and VZW came locked 2 1/2 years ago

Thanks

Looking to upgrade an AT&T line to a free/almost free smartphone. Currently I see a HTC 1 X, a Htc 1 VX and a Iphone 4.
Any suggestions?

I am thinking about getting a new Verizon 4s phone (upgrade from my iPhone 4 and lose my unlimited data plan) for my daughter to use as a prepaid phone in T-mobile. Is that possible? How to do it?

Pretty sure it's not possible to take a Verizon phone over to T-mobile.

if it has a sim slot, why not?

Nowadays, with some of the Verizon and Sprint phones having SIM slots and even possibly supporting GSM (dual with CDMA), it may be possible to take a phone over if it is SIM unlocked.

I currently have a Sprint plan with a galaxy s4 but I'm looking for a smartphone with a physical keyboard, do those still exist?

they haven't been made in a long time so you'll need a real big downgrade to find one
I wonder what people who type "u" instead of "you" do with all their free time.

Currently using the Galaxy S5 and will UPGRADE to the BB Classic when it becomes available for Verizon. I had the Q10 for a bit but couldn't get used to them removing the trackpad and other keys but on the new one it seems they're back so I'm pretty excited.
