Updated PRL with sprint, can u do data roaming?

Just wanna see by show of hands how many can and how many cannot do data roaming on another carriers service (1x or evdo) I myself can't do either with the new prl but I could roam on 1x and get data services with the last prl.
Thanks,
Mike

I can do roaming data. It will cost me a lot of money but it works.

You have to be in an area where Sprint has data roaming agreements with other carriers. I'm in Chicago so I won't be able to data roam unless they come to an agreement with Verizon, which I doubt will ever happen. Sprint does have a dat roaming agreement with Alltel, though.

I don't need data roaming in the houston area, besides there are plenty of wifi hot spots

I am working in Chicago today, I tested and data roaming is working fine for me. I am in the Carol Stream area. I have to turn sprint off to get my 700WX to change networks but it is working. Not sure what network I am on.

I'm assuming the same goes for me in VA Beach.
