It is not likely Sprint or TMobile will see it. However, Verizon and Sprint share the same network frequencies, and allow each other to roam on the other's network, so, you could be reasonably certain you could get decent coverage. It is Apple's policy to not sell the phones without a contract..

Now, technically since CDMA doesn't support sim card locking, you could buy an CDMA IPhone, have them activate the IEMI on Sprint's network, but, Verizon is still going to require that contract. Easier though to probably switch to Verizon.

Buy a prepaid verizon phone and test it in the areas where you are going to be if you think that you're really interested in switching. I'm sort of glad I didn't do that when I got the G2 (which I returned 47 hours later) because I wouldn't have realized how productive that phone could be and I probably wouldn't have purchased a G2 to unlock to run on AT&T had I not gone through that process.
