I was talking to a rep in a Sprint store about the mobile hotspot. I told him that it wasn't worth the price, since I'd use it very rarely. He told me that for occasional users, you can call sprint service, turn the hotspot on, then shut it off when your'e done, and that they would only charge $1 per day of use.
I called *2 to try it, and the lady on the phone said that was wrong, and when you activate, you get charged for a full month.
Has anyone tried this? Who was full of sh*t?
(I know I can root my phone and get free hotspot access. I feel the same about this service as I do about pirating music/movies. If they offer it for a reasonable price, and make in convenient, I'll gladly pay what they are asking. If they make everything expensive and/or inconvenient, ill go steal it.)
