Roam with Alltel and Sprint
Roam with Alltel and Sprint
Kent German Former senior managing editor / features
Kent was a senior managing editor at CNET News. A veteran of CNET since 2003, he reviewed the first iPhone and worked in both the London and San Francisco offices. When not working, he's planning his next vacation, walking his dog or watching planes land at the airport (yes, really).
Sprint and Alltel said this week that they signed an expanded roaming agreement covering not only voice calls but also messaging and 3G EV-DO data services. The 10-year agreement, which goes into effect July 1, will reduce roaming fees for customers of both carriers as well.
Sprint praised the deal and said it will allow the carrier to expand coverage of its multimedia Power Vision service by the end of the year. Alltel customers should also benefit, as the access to Sprint's network will allow them to make calls in more places around the country.
