Just to let everyone know.. I have my Qwest (actually it doesnt matter which provider.. all cdmas will work!) ppc 6800 or vx 6800 working FULLY with Metropcs .. full internet, imap email with outlook, text messaging..
i havent tried picture messaging but i dont anyway. google maps works with the gps to let you know where you are..
all on the 50month plan
IF you can find a store which will add the esn you MUST convert the esn to hex.. here's the link

I got all the docs from ppcgeeks.. feel free to post me with questions!
