PRL = Preferred Roaming List

It determines which cells your phone will use over other cells. It's very important for America's Choice plans. The idea being that if you have the most up to date PRL you're less likely to use a network where you'd be charged Roaming. Your phone will operate on the "Preferred" network. It helps with preventing dropped calls when you cross cell lines and also helps to extend battery life by keeping your phone off analog mode as much as possible. Etc. etc.

I've got the same as you. I was told on HowardForums that you should update it once a month. BTW, PRL's are region specific, so you should mention that we're in NYC.

ESN=Electronic Serial Number

Goold old fashion serial number that identifies your phone on the network.

Now that you know the answer I don't think you would ask the question "Is it good?" anymore.

PS- Update PRL by dialing *228
