Cool but greedy

Love the idea of using my home router for better reception. Hate the idea of paying an extra $20 a month for the privilege.

Doesn't your landline cost more than $20.00 a month with taxes?

The $20 gives you unlimited minutes while on a wi-fi.... definitely not greedy

Still, though...what does it really offer you? Do you spend your entire life at a Tmobile hotspot? I don't get it. At home, yes...anywhere else? No.

You must not have ever sold a phone in your life if you don't love this idea. In the area I sell phones there are plenty of dead spots because of hills and lack of towers in new areas. This service will gives customers, who previosly could never use a cell phone at their house, full reception and unlimited minutes. 69.99/month for 600minutes, unlimited nights, weekends, MyFaves, and unlimited calling while cnnected to hotspot?

I never said I didn't love it...but I did show ambivalence toward it. Looks like you're a Tmobile fan.

Not a T-mobile fan, just a t-mobile sales rep. Doesn't make it easly to sell phones when 50% of your customers don't get reception at their house.

Hey, if UMA does away with that? Awesome.

Bitbucket.... the $20 is only if you PLAN on using (and will want to typically use) the Tmobile hotspots found in coffee houses, airports and so on. Otherwise, any free or currently open and available hotspot will work. Beta'd this months ago - works well.
