Not exactly. I just want to know when shit goes down at work and they're trying to reach me on a company issued blackberry. I spend little time on my bb otherwise.

P.S.> does your model of Blackberry have WiFi? If it does, you would be better off using the WiFi router in your home for data access and would get better speeds and would avoid any bandwidth caps AT&T may put on you, if any, thru this new service.
My BB is an 8700 which I get courtesy of my job. No wi-fi in that model, otherwise I'd have just used that.

I don't care about caps and overages. This is going to be used strictly for e-mail, and more precisely only important, urgent emails that I absolutely have to get at home.

I don't even need 3G for that matter. I just need data service in my house, from AT&T

Of course, AT&T most likely will just deny the data portion altogether.. I don't see why would, but knowing AT&T they will do whatever hurts the customer and fills their coffers faster.
Fixed your misstatement for you.

If you're at home anyway, why not just use your computer instead of a tiny BlackBerry?
My blackberry is used for work to page me and I often don't get a signal at home. With the femtocell I will be able to have blackberry coverage in my house.

Femtocells will offload internet traffic directly to the internet, any traffic that needs to go through AT&T will go to AT&T.

If they employ spit tunnels.

It would have to have data if it transmits an AT&T 3G signal.

AT&T's 3G network is UMTS/HSDPA. Even with just UMTS you have 384 Kbps of data built-in. If it can support HSDPA, it can do several Mbps if your broadband can.

Of course, AT&T could just deny the data portion altogether.. but technically, I don't see why or how they could.

I want one that does data as well so I can have 3G coverage in my house for my blackberry.
I believe the femtocell will provide both voice and data services just like a regular cell tower does.

P.S.> does your model of Blackberry have WiFi? If it does, you would be better off using the WiFi router in your home for data access and would get better speeds and would avoid any bandwidth caps AT&T may put on you, if any, thru this new service.
