Thanks to your patronage, SprintPCSinfo.com has celebrated passing our first 500,000 page views this month. And, to top it off, November has had the most page views of any month.
So, guess the best thing to say is thanks for visiting! You’re helping make this the best place to go for the best in [...]

Started a new links section for “hidden” pages on Sprint’s site.

If you have a Treo 600, and are considering buying either WirelessModem (for Mac) or PDANet (for PC) to use your phone as a modem, don’t! I have developed a free solution that doesn’t involve having to purchase an additional serial cable.
I’m testing it some more, and I want to develop more detailed instructions [...]

Sprint has uploaded the manual for the Samsung A660/VI660, and you can download it at the address below:

A hacked page for the Motorola v60c for SPCS can be found at http://www1.sprintpcs.com/explore/PhonesAccessories/PhoneDetails.jsp?selectSkuId=motorolav60cThe page is pretty much empty but shows the phone at a very large price of $449.99. Not much more details are shown on this page right now but hopefully more will be added soon.

After a few hours of serious work, the Phones Section has been restored, and is much better then before.

Well it apears that the beloved Sanyo 4900 is not dead just yet. It is currently in the process of being re-shipped to local Sprint Stores. The current details of what changes may have been done if any is not yet known but the phone is expected to be $150 with a $70 (2yr) and [...]

Sprint Stores have started receiving Sanyo 5500/VM4500 units in-stock, and they will officially go on-sale tomorrow.
On a related note, the Firmware Tracker has been updated with the firmware version, 1.008SP…

Added a new section to the FAQ for dealing with Sprint Stores that don’t want to replace phones that are under warranty.
