popular Palm® Operating System, thus allowing you to

install and run over 10,000 Palm Computing applications.

Custom e-mail and web applications have been included and

especially designed to work with the Sprint PCS Phone™. The

WARNING:

Charging the Battery

Using the wrong battery

charger could cause

damage to your phone

and void the warranty.

Your phone comes with a rechargeable battery. You should

charge the battery upon opening the package. Being aware of

your battery’s charge is important. If your battery level

becomes too low, your phone automatically shuts off and you

may lose information. For a quick check of your phone’s

battery level, glance at the battery charge indicator located on

the top display screen.

There is also an internal backup battery that saves all the

settings in the phone when the regular battery is discharged.

An internal backup battery needs to be charged initially for 24

hours. To make sure the internal battery is charged, do not

disconnect the main battery from the phone for 24 hours.

Remaining Battery Power

The remaining battery power is indicated on the screen using

a battery icon in the upper right corner of the display.

Note: A battery indicator also exists on the LCD screen. Both

indicators are a correct measurement of battery power.

Note:

If your battery drains and

you have the unit in an

uncharged state for an

extended period of time,

you can lose all of the

stored data.

If the battery charge gets too low, the battery icon

blinks

and the phone sounds a warning tone. The phone may power

down to conserve battery power to maintain the phone’s data.

Note: Always use the Sprint PCS-approved desktop charger,

travel charger or cigarette lighter adapter to charge your

battery.

Using the Desktop Charger

To use the desktop charger provided with your phone:

1. Plug the AC adapter into the electrical outlet.

2. Remove the serial connector rubber plug from the bottom

of your phone.

3. Insert the phone (with the battery installed) into the slot.

ᮣ

A red light on the charger lets you know the battery is

charging.

A green light lets you know that the battery is at least 90

percent charged.

A yellow light indicates that the battery is operating at a

temperature that is too high or low, or that the charger is

not plugged in correctly. Please check the charger and the

battery.

It generally takes about three hours to fully recharge a

completely discharged battery. With the Sprint PCS-approved

Lilon battery, it is okay to recharge the battery before it

becomes completely run down.

Getting to Know the Handheld Computer

What is a Handheld Computer

The handheld computer is a personal digital assistant that

simplifies the way you keep track of important events and

information in your life. By using the handheld computer, you

can keep track and automatically update information with a

tap of the stylus. The stylus is the instrument that is used to

navigate inside the handheld computer. It has a special point

that serves to touch the screen to input information into the

handheld computer.

displayed with instructions. These instructions include a

calibration setup that aligns the internal circuitry with the

touch sensitive screen.

The stylus can also be used to drag and select text on the

screen. Simply press the stylus to the screen and drag it across

the characters without lifting from the surface. Highlighted

text indicates it has been selected.

Note:

Make sure you always

use the stylus when

touching the screen. If you

use another device, the

screen may become

scratched.

Typing

Included in the handheld computer is a fully functional on-

screen keyboard. To access the keyboard, tap either the alpha

or numeric icons listed on the bottom of the screen in the

Graffiti text area. Once the keyboard is displayed, use the stylus

to select the letters or numbers desired.

Tips for Scheduling Repeating Events

ᮣ

If you change the start date of a repeating event, your

phone calculates the number of days you moved the event.

Your phone then automatically changes the end date to

maintain the duration of the repeating event.

If you change the repeat interval (e.g., daily to weekly) of a

repeating event, past occurrences (prior to the day on

which you change the setting) are not changed, and your

phone creates a new repeating event.

If you change the date of an occurrence of a repeating

event (e.g., from January 14 to January 15) and apply the

change to all occurrences, the new date becomes the start

date of the repeating event. Your phone adjusts the end

date to maintain the duration of the event.

ᮣ

If you change other repeat settings (for example, time,

alarm, private) of a repeating event and apply the change

to all occurrences, your phone creates a new event. The

start date of this new event is the day on which the setting

Date Book

147

is changed. Past occurrences (prior to the day of the

change) are not changed.

ᮣ

If you apply a change to a single occurrence of a repeating

event (e.g., time), that occurrence no longer shows the

Repeat icon.

HotSync Options

You can manage your e-mail application more effectively by

selecting HotSync options to control which items download

when you synchronize your phone and your desktop

computer. Different options can be set up for local and remote

synchronization.

For example, you may want to download all of your e-mail

items when you are working at the office and synchronizing

your devices locally, but only urgent e-mail items when you

are away from your office and synchronizing your devices

remotely. Once your local and remote options have been

defined, your phone determines if synchronization is

occurring locally or remotely and uses the appropriate settings

for the HotSync operation.

You can filter messages to control which ones are downloaded,

and you can set truncation options to download only part of

larger e-mail items.

Downloading transmits only e-mail items and any text

information, not attachments, to your phone. Downloaded

attachments are left in your desktop e-mail application.

Section 13

170 Managing Mail

Filter Strings

Your phone filters e-mail based on information in their To,

From, and Subject fields, called a filter string. You create a

filter string by listing the words you want your phone to find

and separating them by either a comma or a space. Each word

in the filter string is joined by an implicit OR; your phone adds

the logical connectors like AND or OR.

To create a more complex filter, you can define filter strings for

the To, From, and Subject fields. Your phone joins the filter

strings for these fields using an implicit AND, and adds the

logical connector for you.

For example, you might want to receive only e-mail items

from John Smith ([email protected]) or Jack Jones

([email protected]) concerning the Apollo Project. You would

create the following filter strings:

ᮣ

In the To field: [email protected], [email protected]

In the Subject field: Apollo Project

Your phone interprets this as, “Accept e-mail items about the

Apollo Project from John Smith or Jack Jones. Do not accept e-

mail items from other people. Do not accept e-mail items from

John or Jack about any other subject.”

When you define a string, your phone searches for any

instance of that sequence of characters. For example, if you

define a filter that retrieves only e-mail items with the string

“info,” appropriate matches would include “info,”

“rainforest” and “kinfolk.”

Managing Mail

171

Define a Filter String

1. Tap the To, From, or Subject header field in the HotSync

Options dialog box.

2. Enter your filter string using commas or spaces to

separate the words. Do add any connectors like “AND” or

“OR” between the words.

3. If the string exceeds the length of the field, tap the name

of the field to display the Notes screen.

4. Tap “Done” to return to the HotSync dialog box.

5. Tap “OK” to exit.

High Priority Messages

If the desktop computer e-mail application has the ability to

designate High Priority messages, your phone Mail can be set

to retrieve only high priority messages.

Retrieving High-Priority Messages

1. Tap the Filter box in the HotSync Options dialog screen.

2. Tap the “Retrieve All High Priority” check box.

3. Tap “OK” to confirm.

Web Clipping Applications

Web Clipping vs. Web Browsing

Using Web Clipping Applications

eb Clipping Applications give you access to a wide variety of information

including news, sports, stocks, movie times, restaurant information, and

much more. Since web clipping is fast and easy, you’ll always be in touch no matter

where you are.

Web Clipping Applications

231

Web Clipping Applications

Web Clipping is a fast and easy way to retrieve information

from the Internet on your phone. A simple process of query

and response is used to send and retrieve information. Most of

the large graphics are removed to achieve a faster download

rate.

Just as an ordinary desktop browser gives you access to many

different websites, your phone gives you access to many

different web clipping sites. These sites are called web clipping

applications. They are created from third party developers, but

are used like a Palm OS® application such as Date Book. The

web clipping application is displayed as an icon in the

Application Launcher.

Web Clipping vs. Web Browsing

When you browse the internet with Netscape Navigator or

Microsoft Explorer, you are using a desktop machine capable

of displaying complex graphic images and text at a relatively

high speed. With your phone, that approach is not as effective.

The screen is smaller and the memory is far less than what is

needed to process all the images.

Web Clipping takes a new approach to getting information

from the Internet. Instead of downloading complex images, a

query and response technique is used.

The Clipping offers the following advantages:

ᮣ

Convenience - Since your phone has a wireless Internet

connection, it can be used anywhere.

ᮣ

Focus - Web Clipping applications focus on retrieving

small pieces of up-to-date information.

Section 20

232 Web Clipping Applications

Using Web Clipping Applications

Web Clipping is basically a query and response technique that

gathers information from the Internet and downloads it to

your phone. The process works like this:

ᮣ

First, you open a Web Clipping application that provides

the desired information, for example Movie Listings.

Next, a query is sent for specific information. For example,

movie listings in your zip code.

Next, you enter a zip code in a space provided and tap a

“Submit” button to request the desired movie listings from

the Internet.

ᮣ

The web clipping application sends the request to the

Internet and returns quickly with a clipping that gives the

piece of information requested. In this case, current movie

listings in your zip code.

Working with Web Clipping Applications

Web clipping applications are designed to work like any other

standard application installed on your phone. The skills and

techniques learned by using the other standard applications

can be applied when using the web clipping applications.

Web clipping applications are similar to standard applications

in the following ways:

ᮣ

You can use Graffiti text or an onscreen keyboard when

entering information.

The interface of the applications are all similar. For

example, drop down menus, edit lines, check boxes, etc.

The edit commands are all the same. For example, cut,

copy, paste, etc.

Web Clipping Applications

233

Drop Down Menu Sorting

In web clipping applications, the drop down lists are all sorted

alphabetically or numerically depending on the content. You

can also write the first letter and be automatically taken to the

first entry in the list, just like the Phone Lookup feature.

Stopping a Wireless Transaction

1. Tap the Stop icon

located in the top menu bar of the

web clipping application.

Note:

Reviewing Current Queries (Back Arrow)

Any data already

downloaded prior to the

stop command is

displayed on the screen.

Charges apply for the air

time that was used to

download the cancelled

data.

Your phone stores the previous queries of your current session.

This allows you to review the entries by using the “Back

Arrow”.

To go to a previously viewed page:

1. Tap the Back Arrow icon located in the top menu bar

of the web clipping application.

History List

The history list keeps a list of all stored clippings in the History

drop down menu. You see only the clippings that pertain to the

web clipping application that is open. When another web

clipping application is open, the history list is changed to

reflect the stored clippings that pertain to the open

application.

To review the history list:

1. Open the desired web clipping application from the

Application Launcher main menu.

2. Tap the History drop down menu located at the top of the

screen.

Section 20

234 Web Clipping Applications

3. Select the clipping to review from the list.

Saving Web Clipping Information

Information that is received from a web clipping application

can be copied and pasted into another application. For

example, if you receive a phone number and an address, it can

be added to the Address Book.

To save information:

1. Open the web clipping application and display the desired

information.

2. Tap the Menu Launcher icon

3. Select “Edit” and tap “Copy Page”.

4. Open the other application, such as Address Book or

Memo Pad.

5. Create a new record.

6. Tap the Menu Launcher icon

7. Select “Edit” and tap “Paste”.

The following applies for the “Copy” command:

ᮣ

Copying always copies from the top to the bottom of a page

regardless of the information displayed.

ᮣ

The copy command only copies the first 4k of data. If all

the data is not copied, the word “Truncated” is attached at

the end of the copied text.

ᮣ

The copy command does not copy any images, icons, or

text formatting that are displayed on the screen. Plain text

only.

IR HotSync Operations

Your phone is equipped with an infrared (IR) port that

supports the IrCOMM implementation of the standards for

infrared communication established by the Infrared Data

Association (IrDA). This means that not only can you beam

data to another Palm OS® handheld that is equipped with an

IR port, but you can also beam data to a cell phone and any

other device that supports the IrCOMM implementation of the

IrDA standards. Most importantly, you can use the IR port to

perform HotSync operations. This is especially useful if you

travel with an infrared-enabled laptop. You simply enable

infrared communication on your laptop and handheld and

follow the steps in “Performing an IR HotSync operation”

later in this section.

Preparing your computer for infrared communication

Before you can perform a HotSync operation using the IR port,

the desktop computer must have the following requirements:

ᮣ

The computer must support the IrCOMM implementation

of the IrDA standards.

ᮣ

The computer must have an enabled infrared port that is

built into the computer, or an enabled infrared device

attached to the computer.

Desktop computers are likely to require an infrared device

attached to a physical COM port. Laptop computers are likely

to have a built-in IR port, so no external device is necessary.

Your computer must also have an installed infrared driver.

Check your computer’s documentation to learn if the

computer supports infrared communication. If your desktop

computer uses Microsoft® Windows 98 or Windows 2000,

infrared communication is built into the operating system.

Getting the Most Out of Your Reception

Maintaining Safe Use and Access to Your Phone

Caring for the Battery

Acknowledging Special Precautions and the FCC Notice

art of getting the most out of your phone is knowing where and how it works at

optimum efficiency. This section outlines performance and safety guidelines

that ensure you experience the full quality your Sprint PCS Phone was designed to

give you.

Performance and Safety

263

Getting the Most Out of Your Reception

Keeping Tabs on Signal Strength

The quality of each call you make or receive depends on the

signal strength in your area. Your phone informs you of the

current strength by displaying a number of bars next to the

signal strength icon. The more bars displayed, the stronger the

signal.

If you’re inside a building, being near a window may give you

better reception.

Understanding Power Save Feature

If your phone is unable to find a signal after 15 minutes of

searching, a powersave feature is automatically activated. If

your phone is on, it periodically rechecks service availability or

you can check yourself by pressing any key. When a signal is

found, your phone returns to Standby mode.

Understanding How Your Phone Operates

Your phone is basically a radio transmitter and receiver. When

it’s turned on, it receives and transmits radio frequency (RF)

signals. When you use your phone, the system handling your

call controls the power level. This power can range from 0.006

watts to 0.2 watts in digital mode.

Knowing Radio Frequency Safety

The design of your phone complies with updated NCRP

standards described below.

In 1991-92, the Institute of Electrical and Electronics

Engineers (IEEE) and the American National Standards

Institute (ANSI) joined in updating ANSI’s 1982 standard for

Section 24

264 Performance and Safety

safety levels with respect to human exposure to RF signals.

More than 120 scientists, engineers and physicians from

universities, government health agencies and industries

developed this updated standard after reviewing the available

body of research. In 1993, the Federal Communications

Commission (FCC) adopted this updated standard in a

regulation. In August 1996, the FCC adopted hybrid standard

consisting of the existing ANSI/IEEE standard and the

guidelines published by the National Council of Radiation

Protection and Measurements (NCRP).

Maintaining Your Phone’s Peak Performance

There are several simple guidelines to operating your phone

properly and maintaining safe, satisfactory service.

ᮣ

Hold the phone with the antenna up, fully-extended and

over your shoulder.

Note:

For the best care of your

phone, only Sprint PCS

authorized personnel

should service your phone

and its accessories. Faulty

service may void the

warranty.

ᮣ

Try not to ever hold, bend or twist the phone antenna.

Don’t use the phone if the antenna is damaged.

Speak directly into the mouthpiece.

Avoid exposing your phone and accessories to rain or

liquid spills. If your phone does get wet, immediately turn

the power off and remove the battery. If it’s inoperable,

return it to a Sprint PCS Center or call Sprint PCS

Customer Care for service.

and redial.

ᮣ

When available, use a hands-free device.

Position your phone within easy reach.

Let the person you are speaking to know you are driving; if

necessary, suspend the call in heavy traffic or hazardous

weather conditions.

ᮣ

Do not take notes or look up phone numbers while driving.

Dial sensibly and assess the traffic; if possible, place calls

when you are not moving or before pulling into traffic.

Do not engage in stressful or emotional conversations that

may divert your attention from the road.

ᮣ

Following Safety Guidelines

To operate your phone safely and efficiently, always follow any

special regulations in a given area. Turn your phone off in

Section 24

266 Performance and Safety

areas where use is forbidden or when it may cause interference

or danger.

Using Your Phone Near Other Electronic Devices

Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from radio

frequency (RF) signals. However, RF signals from wireless

phones may affect inadequately shielded electronic

equipment.

RF signals may affect improperly installed or inadequately

shielded electronic operating and entertainment systems in

motor vehicles. Check with the manufacturer or its

representative to determine if these systems are adequately

shielded from external RF signals. Also check with the

manufacturer regarding any equipment that has been added

to your vehicle.

Consult the manufacturer of any personal medical devices,

such as pacemakers and hearing aids, to determine if they are

adequately shielded from external RF signals.

Turning OFF Your Phone Before Flying

Turn off your phone before boarding any aircraft. To prevent

possible interference with aircraft systems, the U.S. Federal

Aviation Administration (FAA) regulations require you to have

permission from a crew member to use your phone while the

plane is on the ground. To prevent any risk of interference,

FCC regulations prohibit using your phone while the plane is

in the air.

Turning OFF Your Phone in Dangerous Areas

To avoid interfering with blasting operations, turn off your

phone when in a blasting area or in other areas with signs

Performance and Safety

267

indicating that two-way radios should be turned off.

Construction crews often use remote-control RF devices to set

off explosives.

Turn off your phone when you’re in any area that has a

potentially explosive atmosphere. Although it’s rare, your

phone or its accessories could generate sparks. Sparks could

cause an explosion or a fire resulting in bodily injury or even

death. These areas are often, but not always, clearly marked.

They include:

ᮣ

Fueling areas such as gas stations

Below deck on boats

Fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities

Areas where the air contains chemicals or particles such as

grain, dust or metal powders

ᮣ

Any other area where you would normally be advised to

turn off your vehicle engine

Restricting Children’s Access to Your Phone

Your phone is not a toy. Children should not be allowed to play

with it because they could hurt themselves and others, damage

the phone or make calls that increase your phone bill.

Caring for the Battery

Protecting Your Battery

The guidelines listed below help you get the most out of your

battery’s performance.

ᮣ

Use only Sprint PCS-approved batteries and desktop

chargers. These chargers are designed to maximize battery

life. Using other batteries or chargers voids your warranty

and may cause damage.

ᮣ

In order to avoid damage, charge the battery only in

temperatures that range from 32º F to 113º F

(0º C to 45º C).

Don’t use the battery charger in direct sunlight or in high

humidity areas, such as the bathroom.

ᮣ

Never dispose of the battery by incineration.

Keep the metal contacts on top of the battery clean.

Don’t attempt to disassemble or short-circuit the battery.

The battery may need recharging if it has not been used for

a long period of time.

ᮣ

It’s best to replace the battery when it no longer provides

acceptable performance. It can be recharged hundreds of

times before it needs replacing.

Don’t store the battery in high temperature areas for long

periods of time. It’s best to follow these storage rules:

Less than one month:

4º F to 140º F (-20º C to 60º C)

More than one month:

4º F to 113º F (-20º C to 45º C)

Special note: Be sure to dispose of your battery properly. In

some areas, the disposal of batteries in household or business

trash may be prohibited.

Acknowledging Special Precautions and the

FCC Notice

The phone may cause TV or radio interference if used in close

proximity to receiving equipment. The FCC can require you to

stop using the phone if such interference cannot be

eliminated.

Vehicles using liquefied petroleum gas (such as propane or

butane) must comply with the National Fire Protection

Standard (NFPA-58). For a copy of this standard, contact the

National Fire Protection Association, One Batterymarch Park,

Quincy, MA 02269, Attn: Publication Sales Division.

Cautions

Any changes or modifications to your phone not expressly

approved in this document could void your warranty for this

equipment and void your authority to operate this equipment.

Only use approved batteries, antennas and chargers. The use

of any unauthorized accessories may be dangerous and voids

the phone warranty if said accessories cause damage or a

defect to the phone.

Section 24

270 Performance and Safety

Although your phone is quite sturdy, it is a complex piece of

equipment and can be broken. Avoid dropping, hitting,

bending or sitting on it.

Body-Worn Operation

To maintain compliance with FCC RF exposure guidelines, if

you wear a phone on your body, use a Sprint PCS approved

carrying case, holster or other body-worn accessory. If you do

not use a body-worn accessory, ensure the antenna is at least

one inch (2.5 centimeters) from your body when transmitting.

Use of non-Sprint PCS approved accessories may violate FCC

RF exposure guidelines.

For more information about RF exposure, please visit the FCC

website at www.fcc.gov.

Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) for Wireless Phones

The SAR is a value that corresponds to the relative amount of

RF energy absorbed in the head of a user of a wireless handset.

The SAR value of a phone is the result of an extensive testing,

measuring and calculation process. It does not represent how

much RF the phone emits. All phone models are tested at their

highest value in strict laboratory settings. But when in

operation, the SAR of a phone can be substantially less that the

level reported to the FCC. This is because of a variety of factors

including its proximity to a base station antenna, phone

design and other factors. What is important to remember is

that each phone meets strict federal guidelines. Variations in

SARs do not represent a variation in safety.

All phones must meet the federal standard, which incorporates

a substantial margin of safety. As stated above, variations in

SAR values between different model phones do not mean

Performance and Safety

271

variations in safety. SAR values at or below the federal

standard of 1.6 W/kg are considered safe for use by the public.

Agreement

Your agreement ("Agreement") with Sprint Spectrum L.P. and

any of its affiliates doing business as Sprint PCS providing

Sprint Personal Communications Services ("Services") to you

is made up of these Terms and Conditions of Service

("Terms") and the Service Plan we agree to provide you. Your

"Service Plan" is described in our marketing materials and

includes the rates and features we set for that Service Plan. We

use the words "we," "us," "our" or "Sprint PCS" to refer to

Sprint Spectrum L.P. and its affiliates doing business as Sprint

PCS in these Terms. When you activate Services or attempt to

use our Services (including, without limitation, attempting to

Section 25

274 Terms & Conditions/Warranty

place a call on the Sprint PCS Network or off the Sprint PCS

Network when roaming, including "911" or similar calls), you

accept the Agreement.

Provision of Service

Your purchase of Sprint PCS phones or other equipment does

not mean that we must provide Services to you. We may decide

not to provide Services to you for any lawful reason. We may

request that you provide us with any information we

reasonably require to determine whether you qualify for

Services. Services in some areas are managed and provided

under contract with Sprint PCS by independent affiliates with

access to the Sprint PCS Network. Some Services may not be

available or may operate differently in certain affiliate

markets.

Credit Verification

You must have and keep satisfactory credit to receive and

continue to receive Services. We will verify your credit before

agreeing to provide Services to you and we may verify your

credit at any time while we provide Services to you. Credit

verification may include a review of credit reports that we

receive from commercially available credit bureaus. We may

require a guaranty of payment by an individual or entity

approved by us. If at any time we determine, in our sole

discretion, that payment for Services may not be made when

due, we may suspend Services to your phone and require that

you provide payment on account or a guarantee of payment

before we resume Services to your phone.

Terms & Conditions/Warranty

275

Changes to Agreement

We may change this Agreement at any time (but see Service

Plans). Any changes to the Terms are effective when we

provide you with notice. If you use our Services or make any

payment to us on or after the effective date of the changes, you

accept the changes. If you do not accept the changes, you may

terminate Services (but see Termination; Changing Service

Plans). For purposes of the Agreement, "use" includes keeping

the right to access the Sprint PCS Network by not terminating

Services. You may not modify the Agreement except for your

Service Plan (see Termination; Changing Service Plans).

Service Plan

You may be eligible for a fixed length Service Plan ("Term

Service Plan") or for a month-to-month Service Plan ("Non-

Term Service Plan"). We determine the Service Plan for which

you qualify. We may offer non-identical Service Plans to

different individuals or entities. Services and coverage under

some Service Plans may be more limited as compared to other

Service Plans. Your Service Plan sets out the charges for

Services and is your Service Plan until that Service Plan is

changed, you switch to a different Service Plan, or your

Services terminate. Your Service Plan may require that you

make a deposit, prepayment, or a series of deposits or

prepayments, or be subject to an account spending limit,

before Services are activated or maintained.

Changing Service Plans

If you are on a Non-Term Service Plan, you may change to a

different Service Plan for which you qualify by contacting us.

Any change is effective at the start of your next full invoicing

cycle unless otherwise specified by us at the time that you

place your change order. If you change or add a different

Section 25

276 Terms & Conditions/Warranty

Service Plan or service feature and the change is effective prior

to the start of your next full invoicing cycle, you will be

invoiced a prorated amount for the period during the previous

invoicing cycle that the new Service Plan or service feature was

effective. We may require a service charge for implementing

any change directed by you and the Service Plan or optional

service features you selected. If you are on a Term Service

Plan, your ability to change to another Service Plan may be

limited and we may require you to pay a termination fee as set

out in your Service Plan.

Use of Services and Equipment; Availability

You must be at least 18 years old to subscribe to our Services

(other than on a Prepaid Service Plan). We may require you to

provide proof of your age and identity. If you are under 18

years old you may be eligible for certain Services that have

Account Spending Limits if a person 18 years or older is also

named as a subscriber on the Account. Services and

equipment may not be used for any unlawful, fraudulent or

abusive purpose. By requesting Services, you agree that you

will not use Services and equipment in any unlawful,

fraudulent or abusive manner. You may not resell or lease

Services or equipment to anyone. Services are available within

the operating range of the Sprint PCS Network. Coverage and

quality of Services may be affected by conditions beyond our

control, including atmospheric, geographic, or topographic

conditions. We do not guarantee that there will be no

interruptions or delays in Services. Your Sprint PCS Phone™

will not accept the services of any wireless provider other than

Sprint PCS (but see Roaming).

Terms & Conditions/Warranty

277

Number

We assign a phone number ("Number") to the phone or other

equipment used by you on the Sprint PCS Network. We may

change the Number by giving you prior notice. You do not

own the Number. You may not (1) modify the Number we

program into any phone or other equipment, (2) transfer or

duplicate the Number to any phone or other equipment other

than that authorized by us, or (3) transfer the Number to any

other individual or entity.

Phone Activation Fee

You may be required to pay a non-refundable phone

activation fee when you activate a new Number, have us switch

a Number to a different phone, or we activate a different phone

on your existing account. Details on any applicable phone

activation fee are set out in your Service Plan or can be

obtained by calling Sprint PCS Customer Care.

Charges

You must pay, by each invoice due date, all charges for

Services provided to the Number for each phone or other

equipment that our records show you activated no matter who

actually uses or has possession of the phone or other

equipment at the time Services are provided. These charges

include, but are not limited to, recurring monthly service

charges, applicable local and long-distance toll charges, usage

charges, connection fees, roaming charges, directory

assistance, call completion charges, optional features you

select at an extra cost, and taxes and other regulatory related

charges. Charges for a completed call from your Number that

is dialed manually begin when you press the TALK (or similar

key) and end when the call is terminated by either party. You

are invoiced for completed calls to your Number from the time

Section 25

278 Terms & Conditions/Warranty

shortly before the phone starts ringing until the call is

terminated by either party. Charges for most Services are

incurred in one-minute increments, with partial minutes of

use rounded up to the next highest minute. Certain Service

Plans do not include itemized message transmission detail,

even for measured service. Other Services are invoiced on a

recurring monthly flat rate charge and you do not receive

itemized message transmission detail on them.

Voice Command

The Sprint PCS Voice Command feature an optional service

that allows you to place calls without manually dialing by

using speech recognition technology. Calls to 911 or similar

emergency numbers cannot be placed through the Voice

Command feature. Airtime and applicable long distance

charges for a call completed from your Number that is dialed

using the Voice Command feature begin when you press or

activate the TALK or similar key (including the ## keys for

making subsequent calls) and end when your call is

terminated by hitting the END key or by returning to the Voice

Command platform. If you initiate and complete a subsequent

call without leaving the Voice Command platform, a separate

charge for that call will begin from the time the previous call

was terminated. Airtime and applicable long distance charges

will be applied to the entire length of a completed call initiated

from the Voice Command feature, including the entire

amount of time spent interacting with the Voice Command

platform. Using Directory Assistance to input names into your

Voice Command address book will incur additional charges.

Details on charges for the Voice Command feature can be

found in the marketing materials for this feature or by calling

Sprint PCS Customer Care.

Terms & Conditions/Warranty

279

Invoicing

Invoicing cycles are approximately 30 days in length.

Invoicing cycles and dates may change from time to time.

Except as otherwise provided in your Service Plan, monthly

recurring charges (MRCs) are invoiced one invoicing cycle in

advance. Airtime is invoiced retroactively to the first minute

based on your Service Plan for your total usage in your

invoicing cycle. Charges for Services are usually invoiced as

soon as possible after the charges accrue (unless you are

receiving Services under a Sprint PCS Prepaid Service Plan).

We may, however, invoice you for usage and charges occurring

before the invoicing cycle being invoiced, if they were not

previously invoiced. If you are invoiced for usage incurred

during a prior invoicing cycle, those minutes will be applied to

your Service Plan minutes for the current invoicing cycle.

However, if you change your Service Plan between the time the

usage was incurred and the beginning of the current invoicing

cycle, those minutes from the prior invoicing cycle will be

charged at the applicable per minute overage rate set out in

the Service Plan in effect at the time the usage was incurred.

Payment

If you have authorized payment for Services or equipment by

credit card or by debiting a bank account, no additional notice

or consent is required before we invoice the credit card or debit

the bank account for all amounts (including any late charges,

taxes or other regulatory related charges) due to us or billed by

us on behalf of a third party. You must promptly notify us of

any change in your invoicing address or of the credit card or

bank account used for payment. We reserve the right to require

payment by money order, cashier’s check or other secured

form of payment. If we take action to receive payment beyond

invoicing you for charges for Services or equipment, you must

pay our costs and expenses of collection, including attorneys’

Section 25

280 Terms & Conditions/Warranty

fees and expenses, the fees of any collection agency and court

costs. If we act as an invoicing agent for a third-party service

provider, payments received are first applied to amounts due

and owing to us and any remaining amounts are applied to

sums due and owing to the third-party service provider. We

may charge an additional fee for any check or other

negotiable instrument endorsed by you and returned unpaid

by a financial institution for any reason.

Late Payment Charges

Payment is past due if we do not receive it by the due date

shown on your invoice. Any payment for Services and

equipment not made when due accrues late charges until paid

at the rate of 1.5% per month or at the highest rate allowed by

law. Late charges are prorated daily for each day that payment

is past due, but are not compounded monthly. Acceptance of

late or partial payments (even if marked "paid in full") does

not waive our right to collect all amounts that you owe us.

Disputed Charges

You must raise any dispute that you have about any charges

invoiced to you within 15 days of the date of the invoice or you

have accepted the invoice. You may notify us of any dispute by

calling Sprint PCS Customer Care. Calls to our sales or general

business offices are not notice of a dispute. You do not have to

pay any properly disputed amounts while we investigate them;

however, you must pay amounts not in dispute by the due date.

If disputed invoice procedures are described on the invoice,

you must follow them.

Termination. Non-Term Service Plan.

If you are on a Non-Term Service Plan you may terminate

Services at any time by giving us notice. We may terminate

Terms & Conditions/Warranty

281

Services at any time, with or without notice (subject to this

Agreement). We may deactivate any Number before you

receive notice of termination (if we give any notice) without

liability to you. Termination by either of us may be with or

without cause.

Termination. Term Service Plan.

If you are on a Term Service Plan, (1) your ability to terminate

Services before the end of the term is limited, (2) your ability

to change to another Service Plan before the end of the term

may be limited and may result in a termination and/or

activation fee, (3) you may be required to pay a termination

fee as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, (4) we may

not terminate Services without cause before the end of the

term and (5) if we terminate Services for cause before the end

of the term you may be required to pay a termination fee as

liquidated damages. No termination fee is charged if you

terminate a Term Service Plan within 14 days of activation of

your Sprint PCS Phone. During the term we must give each

other notice to terminate Services. At and after the expiration

of the term, you may terminate Services at any time by giving

us notice and we may subject to this Agreement terminate

Services at any time, with or without notice.

Termination. General.

Regardless of whether you have a Non-Term or a Term Service

Plan, we may terminate or suspend Services to you without

liability (1) if you breach any provision of this Agreement

(including if you fail to pay any charges for Services) or (2) if

you fail to pay any charges due us for equipment or otherwise.

If you promptly cure the breach, we may, but are not obligated

to, reactivate Services to you. You must pay all charges for (1)

Services provided before termination of a Number and (2)

Section 25

282 Terms & Conditions/Warranty

equipment, regardless of who terminates Services. If Services

are terminated before the end of your current invoicing cycle,

(1) the monthly recurring charge is not prorated to the date of

termination, and (2) you will not receive a credit or refund for

any unused minutes in your Service Plan.

Account Spending Limit

If we agree to provide Services to you on an Account Spending

Limit basis, we will tell you your Account Spending Limit

before we start Services to your Number, or as reasonably

practicable after the limit is imposed. If we require a deposit

for you to establish or keep Services on an Account Spending

Limit basis, we will hold the deposit as partial guarantee of

payment for Services (see Deposits, below). Charges for

Services accrue against your Account Spending Limit as they

are incurred. We may suspend Services to your Number

without prior notice to you when your account balance

reaches your Account Spending Limit. Services are restored

when you have paid any past due balance and pay a specified

minimum amount to reduce your account balance below your

Account Spending Limit. We may change this minimum

amount at any time upon notice to you. You may pay any past

due balance and the minimum amount by any method

authorized by Sprint PCS. Call Sprint PCS Customer Care for

information about authorized methods of making these

payments. If we provide Services to you on an Account

Spending Limit basis, Services and coverage may be limited in

certain ways. You must pay all charges for Services even if they

exceed the amount of your Account Spending Limit.

Deposits

If we require a deposit for you to establish or keep Services, we

will hold the deposit as partial guarantee of payment for

Services. We may change the deposit amount at any time to

Terms & Conditions/Warranty

283

reflect revised estimated monthly charges based upon your

usage. A deposit may not be used to pay any invoice (unless it

is used to pay a final 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 on the deposit is subject to

change. We may mix deposits with our other funds. If Services

are terminated for any reason, we may, without notice to you,

apply your deposit toward payment of outstanding charges

and any excess is returned to you at your last known address

within 75 days after termination of Services. If the U.S. Postal

Service cannot deliver the money to you and returns it to us,

we will hold it for you for one year from the date of return and

we may charge a monthly servicing fee against the deposit

balance. Any money held during this one-year period will not

accrue interest for your benefit. You forfeit any portion of the

money left after the one-year period.

Prepaid Service Plans. General.

(Prepaid Services are not available in Southern California,

Hawaii or certain Sprint PCS affiliate markets.) If we provide

Services to you on a Sprint PCS Prepaid Service Plan, you may

be required to pay an Initial Prepaid Service Fee to establish

your prepaid account with us. This Initial Prepaid Service Fee

is non-refundable and does not apply against charges for

phone calls you make or receive or service charges. You must

keep a positive balance in your prepaid account in order to

make or receive calls. The balance in your prepaid account is

reduced by daily or monthly service charges (or both), in

addition to the charges for the phone calls you make and

receive. Charges for Prepaid Services are invoiced in one-

minute increments and deducted from your prepaid account

balance. Partial minutes of use are rounded up to the next

highest minute. If you add additional options to your prepaid

account, the monthly charges for them will be deducted from

Section 25

284 Terms & Conditions/Warranty

your prepaid account which could bring your account balance

to $0 or below. When you have used all of the money in your

prepaid account, Services are suspended until you add money

to your account. You may add money to your prepaid account

by any means we agree to accept (e.g. Sprint PCS Prepaid

Wireless Cards). If you do not have any money in your prepaid

account for 45 consecutive days, you will have to pay a

reconnection fee to restore Services. During this 0-45 day

period with a $0 balance, your daily or monthly service

charges (or both) will continue to accrue and you must pay

any accrued charges plus a reconnection fee before Services

are restored. If you do not have any money in your prepaid

account for 90 consecutive days, we close the account. If you

wish to restore Services in the future, you will be subject to

current Sprint PCS Prepaid Service Plan availability and the

current Terms; in addition, you may be charged a reactivation

fee. If you call us toll-free at 1-888-263-9695, we can provide

information about adding money to your prepaid account, the

fees for restoring or reactivating Services, Number availability

and balance information. You must pay all charges for

Services used by you whether or not they are more than the

amount of money in your prepaid account. Services and

coverage under Sprint PCS Prepaid Service Plans may be more

limited than under other Service Plans. Money in your prepaid

account may be mixed with our money. We do not pay interest

on money in your prepaid account. We do not refund unused

money in your prepaid account and will not transfer unused

money to anyone else or any other Sprint PCS prepaid or non-

prepaid account.

Sprint PCS Prepaid Service Plans

(Daily Service Charge)

If your Sprint PCS Prepaid Service Plan has a Daily Service

Charge, it is deducted from your prepaid account once each

day, which could bring your account balance to $0 or below.

Terms & Conditions/Warranty

285

You can avoid disruption in Services by keeping a positive

balance in your account. Even if your account balance

reaches $0, the Daily Service Charge continues to accrue for 45

consecutive days, causing your account balance to become

negative. After 45 consecutive days with a $0 or negative

balance, we will charge you a reconnection fee in addition to

the accrued Daily Service Charge to restore Services.

Sprint PCS Prepaid Service Plans

(Monthly Service Charge)

If your Sprint PCS Prepaid Service Plan has a Monthly Service

Charge, it is deducted from your prepaid account on the first

day of each month. This could bring our account balance to

$0 or below. You can avoid disruption in Services by adding

enough money to your account before the end of each month

to cover the Monthly Service Charge and keep a positive

balance in your account.

Sprint PCS Prepaid Service Plans

(No Monthly Service Charge)

If your Sprint PCS Prepaid Service Plan does not have a

Monthly Service Charge and you have not added money to

your account for 60 consecutive days, your account balance is

forfeited. If you add money to your prepaid account within the

60 day period, your prior account balance and the money

added are carried forward for another 60 consecutive days.

Prepaid Wireless Cards

Each Sprint PCS Prepaid Wireless Card has an expiration date

on it. If you purchase a Sprint PCS Prepaid Wireless Card and

have a Sprint PCS Prepaid Service Plan, you can only use the

card to add money to your prepaid account. The card must be

used to add money to your prepaid account before the card’s

Section 25

286 Terms & Conditions/Warranty

expiration date. If you obtain a promotional Sprint PCS

Prepaid Wireless Card and do not have a Sprint PCS Prepaid

Service Plan, you can use the card to make prepaid phone

calls that will not show up on your monthly invoice. You will

not be able to use the card after the expiration date or 60

consecutive days after making your first call using the card

(whichever comes first).

Wireless Web Services

Wireless Web Services are part of the Services that can be

obtained through Sprint PCS. Wireless Web Services may not

be immediately available in some Sprint PCS affiliate markets.

Use of Wireless Web Services requires a wireless data

compatible phone or certain other equipment (or both) and is

subject to any memory, storage or other limitation in the

phone or other equipment. The Caller ID blocking feature is

not available when using Wireless Web Services. Your Number

is transmitted to any site you visit on the Internet. You are

charged for time spent connected to the Wireless Web,

including time spent browsing on the Internet and reviewing

or scrolling through Internet information on-line while still

connected to the Sprint PCS Network. Not all Internet sites can

be accessed and you may receive an error message if you

attempt to access a site that cannot be accessed through

Wireless Web Services. You are also charged for Wireless Web

connections to review your Sprint PCS account information.

Wireless Web Services currently are not available when you are

roaming off the Sprint PCS Network. Wireless Web Services are

not available to you if you are on a Sprint PCS Prepaid Service

Plan. If you receive Services on an Account Spending Limit

basis, you may be limited in the Wireless Web Services

available to you. Call Sprint PCS Customer Care or visit our

website at www.sprintpcs.com for availability and equipment

compatibility information. Specific additional information

about Wireless Web Services, including pricing, included

Terms & Conditions/Warranty

287

minutes and combining with other Service Plans, is available

in Sprint PCS’ standard sales collateral for Sprint PCS Wireless

Web Services or at www.sprintpcs.com. Sprint PCS is not a

publisher of third party content that can be accessed through

Wireless Web Services. Sprint PCS is not responsible for any

opinions, advice, statements, services or other information

that is provided by third parties and accessible through

Wireless Web Services. Sprint PCS does not guarantee the

accuracy, completeness or usefulness of information that is

obtained through the Wireless Web Services. You are

responsible for evaluating such content.

Taxes and Other Regulatory Related Charges

We invoice you for taxes, regulatory related obligations and

other charges levied by federal, state or local authorities, or

foreign government on Services, or mandated to be paid in

proportion to receipts from telecommunications services

provided, or on sales of equipment (except for taxes based on

our net income), if we pay these taxes or other regulatory

related charges. Taxes, regulatory related charges and charges

not directly paid by us are not invoiced to you, but payment to

the taxing or levying authority of any applicable taxes,

regulatory related charges and charges due from you are your

responsibility. If you claim any tax exemption, you must

provide us with a valid tax-exempt document. Any tax

exemption applies only from the date we receive a valid tax-

exempt document.

Roaming

Calls made outside of your Home Service Area and outside of

the Sprint PCS Network are “roaming” calls. Your

Sprint PCS phone is specifically designed and engineered to

work only on the Sprint PCS Network. It works on other CDMA

PCS providers’ systems only when a roaming agreement is in

Section 25

288 Terms & Conditions/Warranty

place between Sprint PCS and the other providers. If your

Sprint PCS Phone is a dual-mode phone, it works on both a

CDMA PCS provider’s system (in addition to the Sprint PCS

Network) and a wireless analog telecommunications

provider’s system only when roaming agreements are in place

between Sprint PCS and the other providers. If we do not have

a roaming agreement in place, you may be able to place

roaming calls “manually” by using a valid credit card.

Certain features are not available when roaming. Roaming

rates may be different from and higher than the rates you pay

for calls within your Sprint PCS Home Service Area and on the

Sprint PCS Network. Roaming charges are invoiced according

to the practices of the roaming service provider. When

roaming, you are subject to the limitation of liability

provisions and other applicable rules imposed by the roaming

service provider on its own subscribers or on roamers.

Interruption of Service

We may give credit for a continuous interruption of Services

for more than 24 hours on a case-by-case basis. Interruptions

caused by your negligent or willful actions, or by failure of

equipment or service not provided by us, or by causes beyond

our reasonable control, do not qualify for credit. We may

provide you with an airtime credit of one minute for a call that

is disconnected because of transmission limitations caused by

atmospheric, geographic or topographic conditions and that

you redial within one minute of disconnection. You must

notify us within 24 hours of the disconnection to request

credit.

Phones and Other Equipment

Phones and other equipment may be purchased and returned

as provided in the purchase documents. We are not the

manufacturer of the phones or other equipment and the only

Terms & Conditions/Warranty

289

warranties on the phones or other equipment are any limited

warranties extended by the manufacturers. We have no

liability in connection with the phones and other equipment

or for the manufacturers’ acts or omissions, or both.

Lost or Stolen Equipment

If your phone or other equipment is lost or stolen, you must

notify us by calling Sprint PCS Customer Care. You are

responsible for all charges for Services provided to the Number

for the lost or stolen equipment before you notify us of the loss

or theft. We will deactivate Services to the Number upon

notification to us of any loss or theft. You may be required to

provide evidence of the loss or theft (e.g., a police report or

affidavit). If the equipment is later found, we may require that

you exchange it for another phone or other equipment before

we reactivate Services (if we do reactivate Services), as well as

require you to pay a reactivation fee. We will deactivate

Services to any Number without prior notice to you if we

suspect any unlawful or fraudulent use of the Number. You

agree to reasonably cooperate with us in investigating

suspected unlawful or fraudulent use.

Caller ID

If you do not want people you call to get the Number assigned
