TRTM> What is the difference between PCS phones and regular digital phones?

Aern't they using the QUALCOMM CDMA digital phones anyway? That is what
I have, and my phone works on hybrid mode. The QUALCOMM add lists Sprint
PCS as being one of their carriers, so I'd figure they were running a
hybrid phone, it would be very dumb for them to run analog only, and
even worse yet I thought Sprint was coming out with their 2 billion dollar
GSL digital system in 2002. That would be very detrimental to themselves,
selling people all these damn CDMA phones then just supporting GSL Digital.
