That may well be, however Sprint has no history of taking any action
while Verizon definitely does. I have been using Sprint as my sole
internet provider for over two years now with the card plugged into a
KR-1 router and online 24/7.
The next few years will definately be interesting in the business with
WiMax , LTE and other technologies. We should see some incredible speeds
over wireless connection.
