Domestically, yes.
Not only are you dependant on Sprint if you go that route
(Verizon is already pulling the plug on CDMA this year.), it was never
any better than +/- 10 ms or so. You can get that via NTP pointed at
the Internet.
At best, all you were doing with CDMA was relying on a cell
site's GPS receiver and holdover characteristics -- which were totally
opaque to you. At least you can monitor NTP.
