Sprint Compatability

OK. Apparently I am just not smart enough to figure it out. I have the KR1 which I use with the PC5740 card on the Alltel network. Works great! No problems whatsoever.

Now, I need to also get on the Sprint network for work. (Long story about why - I won't bore you with it) I want to use the KR1 because it's worked so well for me but I can't seem to find a concensus as to which card to use. Are there any Sprint cards that work now that all they are offering here is cards with Rev A capability. If so which would you recommend? Or should I go with the Linksys?

Greatly confused in SE Georgia!!

The Sprint S720 "works" in the KR1, but there are issues. You can read more about it here:

If I were a patient man, I'd see if a firmware update did come out to fully support S720, and then be done with it.

But if mid-december were to roll around and still no update from Kyocera? i think i'd immediately by the Linksys router.

Thanks guys. I had found the router comparison link after I posted. Looks like the Linksys router for this one. Can't wait til mid December. Too bad cause I really am satisfied with the KR1.
