LOL@Mike! I too thought their use of the word "illegal" sounded rather manufactured and dramatic. But there probably IS a teeny tiny clause somewhere that covers something like tethering.
Stupid. They wanted to play in the ISP space, but now they want to do so on their terms. OK. Let's see what happens.
Wanna know what's crazy? Sprint's prepaid division (Virgin Mobile) is now advertising a flat $40 per month for an all-you-can-eat, prepaid wireless plan. True, Virgin only uses the 3G network, but hey, there's no 5GB limit on the data piece as it is with contract Sprint plans. Unlimited talk, text and Internet for $40. It's all over the billboards down here. Android is supported on Sprint quite well, which means that the option of unlimited tethering still exists.
The tariffs are circling the bowl once again....
