Getting StartedWith SprintPCSVision
With your phone and Sprint PCS Service, you are ready to start enjoying the advantages of Sprint PCS Vision. This section will help you learn the basics of using your Sprint PCS Vision services, including managing your user name, launching a Vision connection, and navigating the Web with your phone.
Your User Name
When you buy a 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 “@sprint.com.”(For example, the third John Smith to sign up for Sprint PCSVision services might have jsmith003@sprint.com as his user name.) If you want a particular user name, you can visit www.sprint.com and get the name you want as long as nobody else has it.
When you use Sprint PCS Vision services, your user name is submitted to identify you to the Nationwide Sprint PCS Network. The user name is also useful as an address for Sprint PCS® Mail, as a way to personalize Web services, and as an online virtual identity.
Your user name will be automatically programmed into your phone. You don’t have to enter it.
