Everyone seams to be going that way. I think its a good idea for any network.

what about if you live in a densely populated area? it says you can only make 3 phone calls at once?

If you live in a densely populated area chances are you don't need this device. But I agree, can it be programmed to support only certain numbers. I don't want my neighbors to be boxing me out of my own equipment.

i agree. i live in a kinda upper class neighborhood on a hill and we get 1-2 bars or sometimes none, if its in my pocket. ive never once had no service though. at&t is no better :-(

vzw has the best coverage! dont think it worth $250 to have 4bars nstead of 1-2bars. they need to be leaders not followers...followin sprit wtf!

like i said sometimes none. and i occasionally lose calls too. its a lot better when the leaves are off the trees tho

Yea dude chill! VZW is awesome but for those customers that have 6 lines and a prepaid line for the dog need coverage just as much as the other guy with a month to month contract! I've heard Marine Repeaters work for some ppl but this device is awesome. The only thing is it doesn't support Rev A right now. Does Sprint's version support it? Anyone?

VZ is already working out the kinks on a newER model that will support REV A and will work with Mobile Broadband cards as well

work with broadband cards how? like you plug the broadband card in and get reception, or you use this device to get reception with your broadband card? You need hi-speed internet for this to work whats the point of using a broadband card when your at your house with your hi-speed internet??
