I called *2 yesterday and was greeted by Claire telling me to stay on
the line for a free update. After she 'updated' my PRL it was still at
10025, as it was before the update. Same thing happened on my wife's
handset. We're on a Fair & Flexible America for Families plan. Maybe
Sprint just wants to get everyone's PRL up to date.

Sprint has no way of knowing which version you have when they sometimes
randomly auto flag your account.

Oh and also 10025 is still the latest version. When 10026 becomes
available I will make the annoucement on this board along with the
details of what it does.

Frank,

Yeah, it seems to be SOP that Sprint will automatically flag your
account for an update when you sign up for the roaming option (F&CA or
F&FA). They want to be sure that if you're going to roam, you have the
latest PRL on your phone.
