i am 100% for this.
you paid for the phone, you should be able to use it on whatever carrier you desire.
you will still be responsible for termination fees if you are under contract and decide to switch, but at least you wont have to buy a new phone if you want to go from sprint to verizon.

but if you have a sim card and the carrier is a different technology, it won't help much, will it?

First, I am completely for this resolution to be passed... BUT
Second, you didn't technically (fully) pay for your phone. Unless you're on T-mobile (which takes 2 years to pay off the phone if you choose to make payments) or buy a phone off contract, the majority of the cost of a phone is subsidized by the carrier in return for you entering into a binding contract with said carrier.
So, I can see why the carriers are fighting this...
