Sprint Now Offers Unlimited Data on Tablets For $20 Per Month

[Amazing Iceman]

I don't trust Sprint. They lost my trust years ago, and I sworn never go back to them.
Still staying with T-Mobile.

I jumped on this when it was announced, but I already had a phone and iPad through Sprint. Spending $5 more a month to go from 1GB to unlimited on the tablet. Noticable difference in video quality, but nothing that ruins the experience.

I definitely think this a bigger deal for people who are already on and can tolerate sprint in some way, as opposed to people looking to switch

So a buffet but only if you only eat rice.

Maybe VPN works, that way they would not be able to ident the video stream.

Meh, I'll hotspot tether while away from WiFi for now....

I agree. This right here is what I keep scratching my head at. I know there was a time when having it separate for each device, or even carrying around a hotspot, was necessary but with iPhone tether why even bother.

If I have sprint reception, then I have access to the network from my iPhone, and my iPhone can connect to my iPad and Macbook. So why pay the $170 for a cellular iPad, then $20 a month for the service?

If you have a sprint phone (I'm assuming smart phone) it is a good option for say, your uncle Zoli who loves all things tech but won't use it much and refuses to pay for things like garbage service, internet, or a smart phone. Those 80 year olds can be a bit stuck 😉
