Re: Are you kidding me?
Hell yeah. Why should I have 5, 10, 30, 100 sucking my broadband connection with Voice and 3G until I get a call from the ISP's security dept that I am being terminated for overusage?
Cellphones with wifi are fine, femtocells aren't unless they are on dedicated backhauls. Perhaps Sprint should have a website where you can volunteer your house/apt/location for one. They pay for the SDSL/T1 line to run it, that way everyone can use it, and it won't bog down my line, maybe Sprint can give a $10 credit each month for having a femtocell on your property. |

"In the sprint box (not sure about others) it lets the customer configure up to 10 DID's to use with the box if the telephone number is not programed then the neighbors can't use it. Also since it uses the internet the voice quality will be as good as your ISP connection is (not sure which codec it uses yet as that matters as well)."
In Short - If you add all of your neighbors phone numbers to your box that is the customers fault not Sprint's.

| I am going to LMAO and charge you $200 when some hacker finds a way into these things pretty quickly after they start selling these things.
FACT: Hackers can easily hack into almost ANY cellphone that is close enough. Getting through any security in this box would give them direct access to your phone. I have seen someone do it myself besides all those videos you see of people on rooftops hacking peoples phones below.
NO THANKS!

| But how would someone get charged when it is unlimited talk time through the device, if anything it would eat their bandwidth.
I feel its up to me to keep track and report someone using my phone and lock down my internet connection also if they want to hack me that bad and have those types of skills I don't think it'll matter if I have that device or not they will just screw me one way or another, I can just track and protect myself as best as possible.
