The Sprint doesn't have any screen locking mechanism other then the power button. Which is fine for turning the screen off. What I like on the Verizon phone is that there is a ScreenLocking app (from older Windows Mobile builds, updated) that prevents anything on the screen from being pressed. As a previous poster said, the screen may stay on, but at least I'm not accidentally hitting buttons I don't want to.

I am currently on both. Long story, but I am about to end my tenure with Verizon. I started a contract with Sprint and I am using the 30 day guarantee to use the phones side-by-side. Once I'm satisfied with the testing I'll make my final decision about what carrier I choose. I'm leaning towards still going to Sprint. Half the price and no noticeable difference in data/voice either way. Sprint actually is a little better in North East Indiana.
