Well, when i go to buy one, wich one should i get? is there any Diff?

I also seen that there is an altel version so is one cripled or something any limitations than the next?
 
Get the Verizon model. Aside from the aesthetics (black front and back housing), it is by far the easiest of the group to hack. The Sprint model requires you to get the phone's MSL, which can be tricky.

With the Verizon model, it's ##778 then enter six zero's and BANG, you can update the PRL and NAM program the phone.
 
Because it's black. The Alltel version is EXACTLY the same as the Verizon one, minus the black casing, and you'll save around $50. It's every bit as easy to hack as the Verizon one (not that the Sprint or Qwest ones are particularly hard--there are programs on PPCGeeks to get the MSL's).

If you don't care about cooL cosmetics, go with the Alltel version.

As a side note, the resale value of 6700's is very nice. Sold my 6700 for $250 and bought a 6800 with a bad ESN.

Also... if you care to shop around (hint: try "bad ESN Mogul" on eBay), you can pick up a 6800 for pretty inexpensive.
