Helio network card
Helio Hybrid is a new service that allows users to connect to both free and commercial Wi-Fi hotspots as well as a nationwide 3G mobile broadband network. Using specially designed software, the service automatically searches for the best wireless signal from free private or commercial Wi-Fi hotspots and from Sprint's 3G network. Then it automatically connects users to the best-performing network. Users get this network card for free if they sign up for a 2-year Helio Hybrid contract.
