I upgraded my phone to the Hero, had a TP before. I would have thought that I could still use my old phone strictly as a PDA (no phone or data capabilities).

So I am messing around with the TP today and discovered it was still showing it getting both a phone signal and a data signal.

I found out that I can't make any calls because it could not validate my account or something... but I am getting a data connection just fine? How is this possible? Is it good or bad or neither?

I'm on Sprint by the way.
