Re: nice
So... just making sure I read this right.
They use your connection (and your broadband provider's) to provide you service you should be getting... Ok, let's say "make it work better" in your house.
OK, I can see that... but they charge you $15 for it.
"Yeah I have a comment..... What?!?"

It's not mainly to let it work better, but rather that you don't use your minutes when you're at home. Basically, you get unlimited use of your cell phone in the vicinity of your home since you are mainly riding over your broadband connection and not Sprints. Bad service in your home? Then perhaps this could also help resolve that problem... When they say "free," they don't mean 100% free, but rather that you are paying a privilege fee since they are losing your usage of all those minutes at home. For some people, perhaps they use their phone in one location 90% of the time and this could SERIOUSLY save money.

Ok I get it now... Yeah...
You could ditch your POTS line, and keep a fairly minimal minutes plan, because most your calls are made from the home. |
