Sprint Benefits from iPad

Sprint doesn't sell the iPad, nor does it have the right to sell 3G connections for iPads. Nevertheless, Sprint says it is benefitting from demand for Apple’s device. The reason is that most iPads seem to be of the Wi-Fi-only variety, and that means a wireless hotspot service adds value.
