Radios, PRI versions, and PRLs

I have been messing around with my Alltel PPC6800 and reading......ALOT. There are a few things that I am wondering about that I have not found much information on that I'm sure others may have also.

1. There are several newer 3.35+ radios available now. What are the benefits to the "newer ones"? Does it matter what carrier you have? Can you just upgrade the radio via the latest sprint upgrade method or just upgrade via the sd card method. If your phone is already unlocked via 2.40 olipro can you just download the newest sprint rom or do you have to relock first?

2. What is a PRI version? What do they do and how are they upgraded? Are they carrier specific?

3. I know PRLs are tower information for your carrier, I think . I noticed that when I went to Chicago and Atlanta I got GPS locks in seconds. When in my home area I'm in Nepal acording to my phone. If I were roaming on the sprint network while away and thats why my GPS worked so well could I just use a sprint PRL in my home area and would anyone ever know?

Thanks in advance...
