I don't believe so. Different hardware for both.

Definitely not. Right now there is no roaming on 4g. Maybe when Sprint switches from Wimax to lte it'll be possible to share signal. But it's a long time before that happens.

Yes. They have already announced it. They signed a contract with lightsquared to get their lte up. They said it will start turning on next year with 2014 being fully deployed. You have to remember that Sprint chose Wimax because it was easy to setup plus it only takes a software upgrade to switch to lte. Let's just say that Sprint has a good plan on paper. Let's hope it works out.

sprint will eventually kick you off their network for roaming too much, just an FYI.

are you serious ?! lol . when I have the verizon prl enabled , in my phone settings it says "home" not roaming , or will sprint know I'm roaming based off the towers I'm using ? and I only switch prl when I have no sprint service so I'm not worried . I just found that interesting
