Exil3d: Federal regulatory agencies make sure that this is not the case. If a phone carrier goes under and does not make a deal in time, their network and requirements are given to another carrier.

Also, there is a DMCA exception making it perfectly legal to unlock your phone for the purpose of using it on another carrier. I guess from Sprint, Verizon would be your only option and that is really no choice at all. Both of them are equally bad...
