Smile $29.99 HotSpot for 4g Only FREE Until July

Hey guys, check out this article. If your in a 4g area you can use the 8device mobile hotspot FREE until July. Sprint said that right now it doesn't require activation if your in a 4g area, but in July they'll fix it.

This will give the 4g area folks plenty of time to use the hot spot free until the root instructions are avail and then it'll be free anyway. I'm in a 4g area so I'm excited that the hotspot feature will be free until July.

What makes me pretty upset is that there are tons of us/ppcgeekers in a 3g only area and they wont be able to use the hotspot feature. Plus they still have to pay the $10 addon. It's almost like Sprint is trying to piss people off. Good for 4g folks, not to so good for 3g only folks.

The $10 is for the coolness of the phone. Sprint would never lie to us.......

Do you have an EVO your using on it? I have 4g here but never tested it. The thing is, the 3g here is super fast, I really can't imagine something being even faster.

WHAT! You have got to be kidding me. 4G makes 3G look like dial up. I can't believe what I'm reading...
