Not buying them from sprint...even if u use a third party to send them to ur phone (wrote my own php script :)) there is still a problem....i read on sprintusers.com that people are trying to swap gateways with ther msl codes and stuff, but that gets ugly...

Wow, your Sprint Vision actually works? Mine had about a 30% success rate every time I wanted to go online. The other 70% it just hung my phone or gave no response or some other stupid error. Thank god I switched to Verizon!

Ebay has cables with the software for around $30 depending on the model of your phone.

Hey, so with Sprint Vision can you text message to people with other cell providers? I have Sprint right now, but am looking to upgrade my phone and also get PCS Vision for the text messaging that's all the rage these days... :)

Oh! Man that sounds terrible.... stupid Sprint! If they could get just a couple more things right, they would be the untimate mobile phone provider.... ack! :)
