Lazy way of investing in their network

If I had to put one of these gadgets in my house for my cell phone to work I would not go with that company. If a wireless providers wants my money they must provide a good signal in my home.

So if you won't let one of these get installed in your house, will you let them put a tower in your back yard?

Many people get good signals outside the house but inside it just does not work. Look at any carriers contract and they all state that coverage is listed for outside and there is no guarantee that it would work inside.

Some places are just difficult to serve depending on the geography.

Thats find and dandy. But look at all the morons who wanted the whyPhone from AT&T. Lets say, there's this really cool phone you want but you don't have service at your house or it's just so/so (1 bar) and your dropping calls all the time. One of these not only lets you have the device you want from the carrier you want but will allow you to have service in your house without worry also allowing you to CUT your wireline phone (something I would never do anyway) but some will, just so they can pay 15.00 a month for UNLIMITED LD/local calls and dump your 40.00+ pots line. Guess for some, and I'm guessing this is what the wireless carriers want, is for you to dump your wireline line phone, and use THEIR phone for your calls. There are blue tooth devices that will provide dial tone to all your wired phones in the house just through your cell. Though it wasn't intended to replace wireline service, it's just an extra that some don't think about.

Yeah ... I wonder how many people that don't want a site in their back yards are the same people running WiFi everything and will want femtocells in their house ?
