basics of using your data services, including managing your user
name, launching a data connection, and navigating the Web with
your phone.
Your User Name
When you buy your 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 “@myboostmobile.sprintpcs.com.”

have
