But I hope it can be enabled so you get the benefit of sharing when out.

Given the lousy firmware on SHUB1 in routing mode, I find it difficult to believe its going to be touched - wouldn't it be easier to give everyone a Fonera type device?
The SH1 is not being used for Public Wifi - at least not in the current trial phase.

Plus Public WiFi will be on the 2.4GHz frequency range so in theory, the SH1 could be used. But it is a useless wireless device and even VM couldn't be that stupid as to put Public WiFi onto it.
