<p>i had sprint when i was on north campus and it worked out so well! you may want to double check, but i’m pretty sure that roaming is free under all sprint plans. so since sprint roams on verizon’s network, you get the benefit of the best service without a big pricetag. on my sprint phone, there are three options for roaming: automatic, sprint only, roam only. i just kept my phone on roam only so that i was constantly on the verizon network because the automatic option doesn’t always work well. just note, that whenever you turn off your phone the option will return to ‘automatic’ when you turn your phone back on.</p>
