Not for notthing this seems like a really stupid law suit CDMA phones have been lock for side service provider for years. A few reason why they lock phones first is the software a sprint phone Vison features are Jave in nature. Verizon Wireless, Alltel, USC and a few others use BREW. So that right there you lose all of those features like games, web and even pictures and text messaging. Yes you can always flash a phone with the other service providers software to enable those featuers but at that point that would be a waste of time. So these people will win just because its like the V710 law suit it was stupid to start with but they won in the end.
