Thanks for that info. Not being a Sprint customer or being familiar with my
co-worker's phone I'm at a disadvantage. Your experience is exactly what I
would have expected to occur and what I have experienced with other
carriers. At my prompting, my co-worker stopped by his local Sprint store
and explained the situation. The store associate told him he had to add some
"feature"...meaning more money. I'm thinking either my guy didn't explain
what he wanted or the store employee didn't have a clue...probably a little
of both.

Thanks you your input.
