In short, it will not affect anything but your roaming.

Doesn't the first line say it is used to acquire the sprint network?

I noticed that too. But just a few lines later:

"A PRL update will not:

* Improve signal strength on Sprint Network or off network roaming areas"

So I think that's pretty definite.

Actually, I read that as saying that a PRL update will not improve signal strenght anywhere; be it on the "Sprint Network" or "off network roaming areas."

Isn't it just wonderful how they word these things? (Typical technical writing).

"Off network roaming areas" I interpret as carriers which Sprint is not authorized to use (maybe because they have agreements with ones like Verizon?).
