As long as you have GSM service. The system looks for the SIM card only--
it doesn't relate it to the ESN of the phone so any GSM phone that will
take the SIM card will work. My Cingular service (used to be AT&T) came
with a Nokia 3595. I put the SIM card in my N-Gage and works just fine.
One other concern is the phone should be unlocked and reflashed to enable
SPRINT access. The phone software is aware of the system it is connected
to and will give an error message if, say, a T-Mobile phone is used to
connect to an AT&T service, for example. Nokia will not reflash phones to
change carriers, contractual obligations interfere.

Lots of luck...
