The only times CDMA or GSM-TDMA hybrids should have any problem is never.
They never get static or anything like that, just when there is a very low
signal strength it sounds kind of funny.  But it never sounds horrible,
and I am pretty sure sprint PCS is using solid CDMA system, and unless they
are using the bullshit 8kbs vocoders it should sound perfectly fine; not
house phone quality but perfectly fine.
