Switching from 7100i to 8703e maybe ????

I tried posting this in the Sprint forum but no responses. Sorry mods for the cross posting.

I'm thinking of switching sides for my BB service. The questions I have are this.

What can I expect besides faster web surfing?

I currently use my 7100i with an Unlimited Email & Web Plan and pay as you go voice with nextel for $39.00. I do not use my bb for cell usage or walkie talkie. Will Sprint force me to add a voice plan on top of the bb data plan?

I use 3rd party apps such as im+, Idokorro SSH. Will I have any issues with these apps if I switch?

Also what kind of data roaming agreements does Sprint have if any?

Thanks in advance for any input.

I did this move 2 wks ago, not sure if they require a voice, but i got one. The differences i've noticed are faster web, better BT connection, no JVM 102 error, full keyboard, more memory blah blah.....
Also not sure on data roaming.

Thanks for the reply. I will most likely be making the switch this week.
