I see people posting that they are frustrated by Sprint requirements to sign up for 2 year contracts to get onto their network. May I suggest checking into a company a friend suggested to me. Check out the BYOD Plan on the URL: http://millenicom.com/plans/
I was looking for information on devices to use with this plan when I found this website. I have not yet purchased a device (leaning toward the Netgear Zing) and started using the service so I cannot vouch for it. My friend uses the $69.99 Hotspot plan which uses the Verizon network.
I was told by the salesman that the BYOD plan uses the Sprint network and allows up to 50 Gb/month for $79.99. To quote the page:

Unlimited data

The Millenicom BYOD mobile broadband account is a no contract service that allows for nationwide coverage using the clients own mobile broadband device. There is a one-time set up fee of $49.99 to activate the account.
The BYOD service is for personal and family use and is not to be used for commercial purposes or as a public WiFi or broadcast to multi-dwelling units or any other extraordinary circumstance. Usage over 50 gigabytes in one month will alert our investigative team.
Devices usable with this plan: Customer must own a non-active mobile broadband device of the appropriate upstream carrier (email service@millenicom.com for clarification). We highly recommend you contact us before signing up for this type of account to ensure your device is compatible.
I hope this info is helpful to someone
