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 compatible 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 "@qwest.sprint.com."

You don't have to enter it. Finding Your User Name If you aren't sure what your Sprint PCS Vision User name is, you can easily find it online or on your phone. To find your User Name: ᮣ From stayndby mode, go to Menu > Settings > Phone Info> Phone Number. Section 3B: Sprint PCS Vision 209
