T-Mobile @Home Review - CNET

CNET have published a review of the T-Mobile @Home wireless router. 'When T-Mobile introduced its HotSpot @Home service last year, we praised it for finally freeing us from the tyranny of the landline. The service lets you make and receive calls via Wi-Fi (as long as you have a compatible cell phone) in addition to the regular cell phone network. Therefore, you could just make calls for "free" (there's a monthly fee) as long as you're within range of a Wi-Fi signal.

But T-Mobile received complaints that people still were not ready to give up their landlines. The idea of one central home telephone is still a strong one, and using a cell phone when chatting at home is not something a lot of people wanted to adopt. With that, T-Mobile developed a VoIP solution aptly called T-Mobile @Home. All you need is a special router from T-Mobile, a broadband connection, and a regular touch-tone phone. Put it all together, and you're done. Of course, you can also use this router for the HotSpot @Home service mentioned earlier. The router is priced at $149.99, but you can get it for $49.99 with a two-year service agreement. The @Home service will cost you $10 a month on top of your existing wireless plan.'
