Hey I'm a Sprint rep. When normal consumer plans I don't think I've ever seen a new MDN become active without a contract. There was a basic month-to-month plan offered before the simply everythings came out. The coding may still be in the system, but I doubt any rep will activate it. You mentioned that you have a plan with the unlimited vision, text, and whatnot. When wimax roles out, I highly doubt those socs will still work. The phones that work with wimax will most likely require the unlimited plans, much like how we require the pre and instinct to be on simply everything plans. For example, if you look at the plans in our system for our broadband cards, there are a completely different set of codes for normal 3g cards, and the wimax cards avail up in baltimore. I hope this helps clarify things a little.
