Any chance of converting this VZW phone to Sprint??

I have a LG 4400 phone that I want to give to a friend. He is a Sprint customer. On Ebay, I saw that people were selling Treo 650's from Sprint, that were "unlocked" in order to work with Verizon service. Anyone know if this is possible with other CDMA phones such as the 4400?

If this is possible, do you think there's any chance of finding a Sprint or VZW tech who would do this?

Thank you.

Unfortunately Sprint won't activate the 4400. Sprint's system is locked down so they will ONLY activate phones who's ESN's have already been loaded into their databases.

Taking Sprint phones and putting them on Verizon is possible, but not recommended. Typically only voice functions work for a Sprint phone on Verizon, no data functions will work.
