Adding Google to an already competitive field that is in the middle of a major price war isn’t likely to make the big carriers very happy — that’s why smaller carriers Sprint and T-Mobile are helping Google.

But T-Mobile and Sprint, in particular, are being cautious about the deal. Sprint worked a usage cap into its contract with Google that would allow the wireless company to renegotiate its deal if Google signs up a ton of customers, according to the Wall Street Journal.
