Absolutely not. SPrint is a CDMA network, meaning the device must be manufactured specifically for that network. CDMA networks use HEXidecimal codes to connect to the network. This is the same type of service used by cricket, verizon, and many other providers that use CDMA devices. Your Palm can be "flashed" with the proper setting to work on any of these networks, but as long as the network requires a sim card it will not. Sim cards are used on GSM networks, which run on a totally different frequency lvl.
THe only way to make the device work is to be a phone genius and "hack" a sim port onto the board. Unfortunately, this is so complicated, i have only been able to it to one device (a first generation palm centro) and the device experienced many problems and after a few months, shorted out completely.
SO DONT TRY!!!! your best bet is to find someone that will trade you straigh out.
