Bob,

I have all the details on 10025 and it did not make any changes in your
area (roaming or native). It did however add new digital roaming in
Florida and Texas. Other than that the big change was for Montana
where Sprint now has native coverage of their own via a partnership
with Western Wireless and the Qwest towers they picked up.

Where in Florida were the changes effective? Statewide? Or in certain
regions?

I got a text message from them about 2 weeks ago on a Saturday and then the
following weekend about a PRL update for 10025. I called *2 both times and
was told they had unusally long wait times. I finally ended up waiting on
hold for awhile to have them manually flag my phone. You would think that
they would automatically flag your account when they TM you.

I live in Western NY...any updates for around here? Would they send it
based on where you use your phone? Cause I am a truck driver and drive all
over New England, PA, NJ and NYC.

No clue David, but you should try it again, once you have 4 bars of signal
strength ... as it should be able to do the download.

From the Mountain Wireless website:

4. SPRINT PCS PRL's
-Dual-Band:
10025 Released October, 8, 2004

What's changed in PRL 10025:
-Adds more potential CDMA roaming coverage in CA, NV, TX, SD, OK, MO, IA,
MN, IL, ME, FL, NH & Ecuador.
-Accesses new no-charge roaming for both single- and dual- band phones in
MT.

The other thing worth mentioning is that is helps speed up Sprint
signal acquistion in a couple of smaller cities in OH, IL, and Iowa.
