YourSprint PCSConnectionCard  
Your Sprint PCS Connection Card fits into aType II PC Cardslot  
(available on most notebook PCs) and functions as a wireless  
network card.  
This card allows you to:  
Accessyourcompanynetwork  
Sendandreceiveemail  
AccesstheInternet  
CDMANetworks  
The Sprint PCS Connection Card operates over a type of wireless  
network called CDMA (Code Division Multiple Access).  
To use the Sprint PCS Connection Card, you need an account  
that gives you access to a CDMA network.  
Every CDMA network operates on one of three radio  
frequency bands. Your Sprint PCS Connection Card PC-5740  
leverages the high-speed CDMA 1xEV-DO nework and  
operates on the 1900 MHz band.  
The Sprint PCS Connection Card utilizes CDMA 1xEV-DO  
technology enabling real-time high-speed wireless access to  
email, the Internet, or your company network.The card runs  
on most current Windows-compatible laptop or desktop  
computers, and it provides data transmission of up to 2.4  
Megabits per second (Mbps) (average speed of 300-800 kbps  
before bandswidth optimization).  
Tip: More information about CDMA networks is available on the CDMA  
Development GroupWeb site,www.cdg.org.

ANetworkCard  
SM  
During Sprint PCSVision connections, the Sprint PCS  
Connection Card is a true network card, functioning just like the  
network cards familiar to most business computer users. Once  
installed and configured, the card connects instantly to the  
CDMA network with just a few mouse clicks.To surf theWeb,  
you can just insert the card, click a few buttons, and launch your  
Internet browser.To access your company network, you may  
need to launch an extranet client after you connect to the  
CDMA network.  
Tip: To optimize your settings for faster speeds and data conservation  
when accessing your company network, work in "Offline" mode and  
synchronize periodically to send and receive company email. Do not use  
the Preview Pane; also, save or drag and drop attachments to a desktop  
folder before opening them (rather than double-clicking them in the  
email). For more detailed information, access the Microsoft whitepaper  
at http://www.microsoft.com/office/outlook/evaluation/perform.doc.

888-567-5528 within 30 days after the changes go into effect. You  
understand and agree that taxes, Universal Service fees and other charges  
imposed by the government or based on government calculations may  
increase or decrease on a monthly basis, and that this paragraph does not  
apply to any increases in such taxes, Universal Service fees or other charges.  
Activating Service. Before activation, we may check your credit and  
verify your identity. You must have and maintain satisfactory credit to  
receive and continue to receive Services. We may charge a nonrefundable  
activation fee, deposit, prepayment or other fee to establish or maintain  
Services.  
Term Commitments. Unless we specifically tell you otherwise, our  
service plans require that you maintain service for a minimum term ("Term  
Service Plan"), usually  
1 or 2 years. After satisfying this minimum term, your service plan will  
continue on a month-to-month basis unless you have agreed to extend the  
term for additional period(s). Certain service, promotional or product offers  
may require that you agree to or extend aTerm Service Plan. As discussed  
below, we may charge you an EarlyTermination Fee if you deactivate aTerm  
Service Plan before the end of the term.  
UsingServices. You agree to not use our Services in an unlawful,  
fraudulent or abusive manner. You may not resell or lease Services to  
anyone. Sprint is not responsible for any opinions, advice, statements,  
services applications or other information provided by third parties and  
accessible through our various Services, including the internet. Neither  
Sprint , its vendors or licensors guarantees the accuracy, completeness or  
usefulness of information that is obtained through these Services. You are

ChangingServices. Changes to Services will generally be effective at the  
start of your next full invoicing cycle. In certain instances, the changes may  
take place sooner, in which case your invoice will reflect pro-rated charges.  
Certain changes may be conditioned upon payment of an EarlyTermination  
Fee or certain other charges.  
TerminationofServices. Consistent with this Agreement: (a) we may  
terminate Services at any time with notice to you and, in certain instances,  
without notice; and (b) you may terminate Services at any time with prior  
notice to us. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, IFYOU  
TERMINATEYOUR TERMSERVICEPLANEARLY, ORWE DO SO FOR GOOD  
CAUSE, YOUWILL BE REQUIREDTO PAYTHE APPLICABLE EARLY  
TERMINATION FEE ASSOCIATEDWITHYOUR SERVICES. We will not charge  
an EarlyTermination Fee for deactivations consistent with our Return Policy  
or for service plans being provided on a month-to-month basis. If any  
Services are terminated before the end of your current invoicing cycle, we  
will not prorate charges to the date of termination, and you will not receive  
a credit or refund for any unused Services.  
WirelessDevices, Numbers&E-mailAddresses. We did not  
manufacture your wireless device and we are not responsible for any  
defects or for the acts or omissions of the manufacturer.The only  
warranties on your device are any limited warranties extended by the  
manufacturer directly to you or passed on to you through us. Your device  
may not accept Services directly from any other carrier. You do not have any  
rights to any number, e-mail address or other identifier we may assign to  
your device or account; you may not modify, change or transfer any of these  
except as we allow or as allowed for by law. In certain instances, you may  
transfer your number from another carrier to us, or from us to another  
carrier. We do not guarantee that transfers to or from us will be successful.  
If you transfer your number away from us, the terms of this Agreement  
(e.g., EarlyTermination Fee, etc.) still apply. If a transfer to Sprint is not  
successful, you will be responsible for any discounts provided to you  
with the purchase of your device. See our printed in-store materials or

visit www.sprint.com for additional important information on  
number transfers.  
Coverage. Available coverage areas for Services are generally identified in  
our mapping brochures and at www.sprint.com.This may include coverage  
on our digital network (the "Sprint Nationwide PCS Network") as well as  
coverage we make available to you through agreements with other carriers  
("off network" or "roaming" coverage). Allcoveragemapsarehighlevel  
representationsofoutdoorcoverageandtherearegapsincoverage

ourcontrol, includingnetworkproblems, software, signalstrength,  
yourequipment, structures(includingbuildingsinwhichyoumaybe  
located), atmospheric, geographic, ortopographicconditions.  
RoamingCoverage. You are roaming anytime your phone indicates that  
you are roaming. Roaming coverage is only available with certain devices  
and, unless included as part of your Services, will result in additional  
charges. Roaming calls placed "manually" (through an operator or with a  
credit card) will always incur separate and additional charges. Depending  
on your phone settings, you may automatically roam if there is a gap or  
interruption in coverage within the Sprint Nationwide PCS Network  
coverage area and roaming coverage areas. See your phone guide for how  
to adjust phone settings. Certain features and services may not be available  
in roaming coverage areas (including PCSVision, voicemail, call waiting, call  
forwarding, etc.).  
Charges. Carefully review the terms of your Services. You will be assessed  
charges based on the terms of your Services including, without limitation,  
monthly recurring charges and charges based on actual usage (e.g., charges  
for long distance, roaming, call forwarding, directory assistance, etc.).  
Airtime and other time based usage charges are calculated from when your

device first initiates contact with a network until the network connection is  
broken, whether or not you were actually successful in connecting to the  
intended destination. However, you will not be charged for voice calls that  
ring and do not pick up, or if you get a busy signal. For voice calls received by  
your device, you are charged from the time shortly before the phone starts  
ringing until the call is terminated. You are charged for an entire voice call  
based on the time period in which the call is initiated. Partial minutes of use  
are rounded up to the next minute.  
Sprint PCSVisionCharges. Vision usage is measured in bytes, not in  
minutes. Bytes are rounded up to kilobytes. Usage rounding occurs at the  
top of each clock hour while in a session and at the end of each session and  
is then charged to you based on the terms of your Services. Depending on  
your Services, usage may be charged against an allowance or on a fixed  
price per kilobyte. Usage charges may be rounded up to the next cent at  
monthly or other intervals. In certain instances, you may not know that  
your session has not ended. As long as your device is connected to our  
network, you will incur data usage charges. You will be charged for all data  
directed to the internet address (or "IP address") assigned to your device,  
regardless of who initiates the activity or whether your device actually  
receives the data.This includes, but is not limited to, the amount of data  
associated with the particular information/item (e.g. game, ringer, email,  
etc.), additional data used in accessing, transporting and routing this  
information/item on our network, data from partial or interrupted  
downloads, re-sent data, and data associated with unsuccessful attempts  
to reach websites or use applications. Based on these and a number of  
other factors (e.g., the specific application, network performance, etc.) data  
used and charged to you will vary widely, even for the same activity.  
Estimates of data usage – for example, the size of downloadable files – will  
not be accurate or a reliable predictor of actual usage. Your invoice will not  
separately identify the number of kilobytes attributable to your use of  
specific sites, sessions or services.  
TaxesandSurcharges.We invoice you for taxes, fees and other charges  
levied by or remitted directly to federal, state, local or foreign governments  
104  
Section 5B:Terms and Conditions  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
including, without limitation, sales, gross receipts, Universal Service, use,  
and excise taxes. If you claim any tax exemption, you must provide us with  
a valid tax-exempt document.Tax exemptions are not applied  
retroactively. We also invoice you for surcharges that we collect and keep to  
pay for the costs of complying with government programs such as number  
pooling and portability, and Enhanced 911 service; these charges are not  
the taxes nor government imposed assessments.  
Invoicing&Payment. Invoicing cycles and dates may change from time  
to time. Monthly recurring and related charges for Services are generally  
invoiced one invoicing cycle in advance. Other charges are invoiced soon  
after they are incurred. Most usage is generally applied to the invoicing  
cycle in which they are incurred, but in some instances may be applied to  
subsequent invoicing cycles. You are responsible for all charges associated  
with any device activated on your account, regardless of who used the  
device. You must pay all charges by the due date on the invoice. Past due  
amountsaccruelatechargesuntilpaidat therateof5%permonthor  
at thehighest rateallowedbylawandmayresult inimmediate  
suspensionofyouraccount. If you agree to any auto-payment option  
through banking or credit account, we may initiate payment from the  
account for all amounts we invoice you without additional authorization or  
notice. Based on your credit or payment history, we may require certain  
forms of guaranteed payment as a condition of maintaining Services. If we  
invoice you for amounts on behalf of a third-party, payments received are  
first applied to amounts due to us. You may be charged additional fees for  
certain methods of payment and for payments denied by a financial  
institution. Acceptance of payments (even if marked "paid in full") does not  
waive our right to collect all amounts that you owe us.  
DisputedCharges. Disputes concerning any charges invoiced must be  
raised within 60 days of the date of the invoice. You accept all charges not  
disputed in this time period. Disputes can only be made by calling or  
writing us as directed on your invoice.

Account SpendingLimit &Deposits. We may impose an account  
spending limit ("ASL") on any account without notice. We will notify you of  
an ASL based on your credit or payment history and may reduce the ASL at  
any time with prior notice. An ASL should not be relied on to manage usage  
on your account. We may suspend an account without prior notice when  
the account balance reaches the ASL, even if the account is not past due.  
Services can be restored upon payment of an amount that brings the  
account balance below the ASL and any past due amounts. If we require a  
deposit for you to establish or maintain an account, we will hold the deposit  
as partial guarantee of payment for Services. We may change the deposit  
amount at any time with notice for good reason. Except as we allow, a  
deposit may not be used to pay any invoice or delay payment.The deposit  
amount, the length of time we hold the deposit and changes to the deposit  
amount are determined based on your credit and payment history.The rate  
of interest, if any, on the deposit is subject to change. We may mix deposits  
with our other funds. If your account is terminated for any reason, we may  
without notice apply your deposit to any outstanding charges. We may  
send any remaining deposit amounts to your last known address within 75  
days after account termination. If the funds are returned to us, you may  
claim these funds for one year from the date of return. Any money held  
during this one-year period will not accrue interest for your benefit and are  
subject to a servicing fee charged against the balance. You forfeit any  
portion of the money left after the one-year period.  
OtherSprint PCSVisionTerms.You will not receive voice calls while using  
Vision.Vision is not available for use with server devices or host computer  
applications, other systems that drive continuous heavy traffic or data  
sessions, or as substitutes for private lines or frame relay connections.  
UnlimitedVision plans/options may not be used with Sprint PCS phones or  
smart phones being used as a modem in connection with other equipment  
(e.g., computers, etc.) through use of connection kits or other phone-to-  
computer/PDA accessories, or Bluetooth or other wireless technology. We  
may terminate services without notice for any misuse. You may have access  
to certain games, ringers, screen savers and other items on ourVision site

billed for Premium Service purchases on your Sprint PCS invoice based on  
the charges as specified at purchase. Subject to the terms of the content  
purchased, we may delete premium and non-premium items downloaded  
to any storage areas we may provide, including any pictures, games and  
other content. We may limit the amount of Premium Services you may  
purchase in a specific timeframe (month, week, day, or other time period).

device and Service plan/option.This is not aVision service. Usage is  
calculated on minutes used and generally deducts from your Service plan  
minutes. See our printed in-store materials or visit www.sprint.com for  
additional important information on this option.

immediately by calling 1-888-211-4PCS. Youareresponsibleforall

fraudulent use.  
Messaging.You may incur charges in accessing, sending or receiving  
messages on your device. We may impose limits on the number of  
voicemail, text, email or other messages that can be retained through your  
account. Indicators of messages on your device, including mailbox icons,  
may not always provide an up to date indication of new messages and you  
may at times need to manually reset or clear your mailbox indicator.  
Legitimate messages may be interrupted by software aimed at prevention  
of SPAM or similar messages.

hearing, or who have speech or language disabilities, to communicate by  
telephone.TTY doesn't work with all devices. If you have aTTY-capable  
device, it may not function effectively, or at all, when attempting 911 calls  
and should not be relied on for such calls.

selected according to the rules of either JAMS or the National Arbitration  
Forum ("NAF"), or, alternatively, as we may mutually agree. We agree to act

arbitration is filed or, if the arbitrator is chosen by mutual agreement of the  
parties, the then-applicable rules of JAMS will apply unless the parties  
agree otherwise. All expedited procedures prescribed by the applicable  
rules will apply. We agree to pay our respective arbitration costs, except as
