Earlier in April, Sprint had lauched a 3G/4G WiFi router named as Overdrive (a WiMAX modem) that connects to 4G broadband wherever the service is offered. Overdrive was targeted to iPad users. Overdrive also has a fail safe mechanism to connect to a 3G network when the device isn’t in a WiMAX market. However iSpot does not seem to be supporting 3G similar to Overdrive.
