KANSAS CITY, Mo., February 7, 2000 -- Sprint today announced a new program and Web site -
developer.sprintpcs.com - geared to help Web developers around the world create their own Sprint PCS

Application Developer's Program is designed to make it easy for independent and corporate developers to
become a part of one of the fastest-growing areas in telecommunications - wireless data applications - and

"Sprint developed this Web site to harness the power of all the application developers who are looking for a
wireless platform for their creations," said Jim Ryan, director of Data Applications and Content. "By 2002,

Web service and the expertise of application developers, we are aggressively pursuing ways to make
wireless data as useful, beneficial and valuable as possible for our subscribers. It's now easier than ever for
developers to become a part of the Sprint PCS Wireless Web."

Visitors to the Web site can register to access the Sprint PCS Developer's Toolkit, which is free and includes
everything needed to develop wireless applications for the Sprint PCS Wireless Web or make a Web site
accessible to users of this wireless data service. In addition, visitors can find answers to frequently asked
questions about the program, learn about current partners and read about the latest Sprint PCS news.

Current Premier partners in the Sprint PCS Application Developer's Program include 724 Solutions,

vision to the Sprint PCS Wireless Web."
