Hash Shard Map with SQL Azure

I've been doing some reading about sharding SQL Azure databases with Azure Elastic Scale. The article discusses two types of shard maps: List and Range. What about Hash shard maps? My application requirements are to evenly distribute data across shards which would seem to require a hashing of the shard key. Is this possible with SQL Azure and Azure Elastic Scale?

At this point in time Elastic Database tools (formerly known as Elastic Scale) doesn't support hash shard maps.

Thanks
