bhtooefr's Journal: Switching a phone from Verizon to Sprint

My Sprint phone was stolen. I have a friend who is offering up his old Verizon phone (it had gotten stolen, and he got it back, but had already gotten a replacement). He says that he's got a friend at the Verizon store who can unlock it. My question is: can I get Sprint to take this phone, and if so, what words do I use to socially engineer Sprint into taking it's IMEI number into it's database? I don't know the model yet, but I do know that it is an LG flip-phone with a monochrome screen (yeah, I know how much help that is). The Verizon phones should be capable of all of the frequencies of the Sprint network.

Hmm... Looks interesting, until I see that Synergy is like x2x/x2vnc/win2vnc in that it's essentially a KVM without the V (each box has it's own monitor).

Maxivista is a program that creates a virtual display, and then sends the contents of said to the viewer app on another computer. The closest thing I could think of would be creating another X display for VNC purposes, and then stitching the two together.
