Virgin Mobile & number portability

I wonder if the resellers will also have to participate in the WNP
program -
ie - number going to/from Virgin Mobile -

I have not seen anything that related to the resellers, like VM,
as of course the actual carrier's switch software has be upgraded
first -

As far as number assignments go, I think Virgin is considered to be
part of Sprint. At least that's what I found when I looked up some
area code + prefix combinations at www.nanpa.com

Virgin (US) only uses Sprint PCS, and yes they use Sprint's assigned
numbers. How they're subdivided between regular Sprint's customer base and
Virgin is unknown to me.
