This will have a 3g radio as well, correct?

I'm sure we can't use SERO for wimax, but could we activate this phone without a wimax plan?

It's like being given administrative access on your phone. When you first get it, you have user access, but are locked out of certain things on your phone, like adding themes that change the lock screen, or other parts of the OS. After rooting, you can load custom roms, and tweak other settings that were previously unavailable. It's like unlocking a WM phone, in order to load a custom wm 6.5 rom.

With how Sprint has been trying to get people off of legacy plans, they will onloy be allowing this on SEP plans. Plus, its a android phone and they require SEP plans.

Im sure by the time they roll WiMax and WM 7, there will be no more smart phones that will work on legacy plans.
