| Anyone have a link showing all of the features?
I have Verizon wireless service, so this might be interesting to me, especially if there's a cost savings over Comcast CDV.
Will it work everywhere? Or just in Verizon's footprint? This article would seem to indicate that it may be the former.

| Depends on what it'll do for you. Speaking of which, what does this thing do? What's the benefit? I have two lines with VZW, what does $199 +$35/mth get me? I'm all for technology, but this seems like an attempt to force a product into a niche that doesn't exist. |

They've been talking about Wimax for how many years now? Hope you're patient. |

You need to have internet AND cellular plan for the thing to even be purchased and then you pay an additional 35$ a month for 2 years no less? Come on V buy a clue, in this market you need to have expensive gadget with low to non existent fee and not tied in to other services to even work....sheesh |

Re: Fee

Good question. I'm moving in March and dropping my landline. I've been testing MagicJack and it works just as good as my landline, with a cell phone for backup I don't see any use for me. |

Agreed. Would you run Windows or Mac OSX if you had to pay a monthyly fee? I'm already paying $$ for FIOS. Except for the fee, this would be a GREAT kitchen wall phone for $200. |

| Get Real Verizon
I have FIOS and I've been reading and waiting on the Hub for a year. I couldn't wait to have an email, internet device in the kitchen. I was willing to pay the $199 or even $250 prive but now I have to pay $35 a month? FORGET IT VERIZON. You are getting all you are going to get from me each month already. I'll put a PC there and get the same (if not better) functionality I need at a one time cost. |
