My SprintPCS PPC6700 works just fine on wifi, and I don't even
have it activated as a phone at all. So not being in a SprintPCS 3g area
has nothing to do with wifi access. I do not know if verizon customers
can roam on SprintPCS' 3g network here where the verizon 3g network
isn't. The phone I am currently using does not have roaming only, but
even if I was to switch to the 6700, which has a roaming only setting,
there is not a way to force it to a specific carrier. Here, it might
just as likely go to uscellular.
