It is the phone not sprint that has the voice/data at the same time issue, I switched to a Motorola Q and can do both at once. Very nice.
Well, unfortunately that is not true. CDMA (the technology that both Sprint and Verizon use) is incapable of doing simultaneous voice and data. That is the main difference between CDMA and GSM networks (such as Tmobile, ATT, etc). While those of us using CDMA traditionally had to chose between a voice or a data call, newer handsets and network upgrades have provided a "fix". Previously, if you were using the phones internet connection and someone called you they went straight to voicemail. Now, if someone calls you the data call is temporarily interrupted so you can answer your call. This is probably why you think your phone can do both at once, as it appears like the data call never ended; and as soon as your call is done it resumes. In reality you are actually initiating a second data call to complete the original task!
