Video Tour: Verizon Hub
Would it of been to hard to put a webcam in it?
It would seem like if they wanted to sell a service that you can't really get anywhere else (except skype or something) they would of just put a webcam it in to help sell them to multiple sets of people. Like if you had one and you had a webcam you'd tell your mom to buy one so you can video chat with her (my mom is the only person I video chat with because she is the only person that thinks I'm cool). But srsly. Webcam. It's the future. We should be video calling people already.

It's an interesting device, and I applaud verizon for taking the initiative. I just wonder how they're going to push it in stores.

Lacking in too many ways...
Neat idea, but this thing doesn't even sync calendar, contacts, email etc with a smartphone/exchange server mailbox...DURRR...They targeted at busy business professionals and didn't think that would be an important feature?
...Purely a waste of money.

Just keep your eyes open.
RIGHT NOW, you can import contacts from Outlook off the Hub website. You should see more PIM capability in the future.

I totally agree, why have such a device from your wireless carrier if it doesn't sync with your device the ideal and most simplistic design would be to give full sync capabillities and also be able to sync multiple devices so you could veiw everyones ...

Hmmmm . . . Looks similar to what AT&T Home Manager looks like. They have had this product for a little while now.
