That is their drawback for some and the reason being they have to build a custom ROM that has their Wi-Fi programming in it and then they have to get Sprint to test and approve the phone for their network. The availability of the Moto X and G phones along with the older DefyXT give a little more choice than when they started service. My son just received his MotoG and loves it. Doesn't do 4G data but Sprint has not upgraded their network here anyway. My older kids will be getting Republic phones by the end of summer. This will shave $150 a month from my cell phone costs and since we all have Android phones now it's not a major change. I will just lose my slide out keyboard. The big plus will be not having to worry about the kids going over on the shared data plan. They are good about that now but it is one less worry.

I've been wonding when this would happen, hopefully this will go main stream, I don't know why it hasn't already. All networks are suffering and wifi offload seems like an answer. I want to be able to make calls like I'm on network but when I only have wifi coverage.

The future is going to be interesting for sure. A few questions come to mind. Is there a business model where WISP's can partner with a Google or Microsoft to help advance our offerings or would you be just selling your soul to Satan. How do you compete against that level of investment if they start putting up hotspots to offload from the LTE networks in your area since that will most likely destroy 2.4 and 5.7-8 bands.
