     This Registration  Statement as originally filed related to the offering of
15,000,000  shares of FON Common Stock and 17,000,000 shares of PCS Common Stock
issuable  under the Sprint  Retirement  Savings  Plan and the Sprint  Retirement
Savings Plan for Bargaining Unit Employees.

     On  February  28,   2004,   Sprint's   board  of  directors   approved  the
recombination  of the PCS Common  Stock and the FON Common  Stock,  effective on
April 23, 2004 (the  "Conversion  Date").  None of the 17,000,000  shares of PCS
Common Stock were issued before the Conversion Date. Following the recombination
of the PCS Common Stock and the FON Common Stock,  no shares of PCS Common Stock
may be issued. Accordingly,  the purpose of this Post- Effective Amendment No. 1
is to  deregister  the  17,000,000  shares of PCS Common  Stock  covered by this
Registration Statement.
