I have a TP2 on Sprint's network and will be traveling to Toronto soon for a couple of weeks.
I'm not really sure what their options are for calling plans, I think they offer a reduced usage rate or something but they don't offer Data.
My question is, can I have my phone in Airplane mode and use a Wifi hotspot on the phone without connecting to Sprint? I would think techincally I wouldn't even need to have phone service on the device, but I'm not exactly sure how it works. Would what I'm planning on doing work and I won't be charged any usage/data through Sprint using WIFI Hotspots to check email, etc?

You can definitely use Wifi on your phone without being in Sprint service; however, if you're in Airplane Mode, a registry setting prevents you from using Wifi.
