Data Services General Information
The following topics will help you learn the basics of using your data services, including managing
your user name, launching a data connection, and navigating the Web with your phone.
Your User Name
When you buy your phone and sign up for service, you’re automatically assigned a user name, which
is typically based on your name and a number, followed by “@sprintpcs.com.” (For example, the
third John Smith to sign up for Sprint data services might have [email protected] as his user
name.)
