    I'd buy one just for the USB NAS, provided it doesn't require Fonera to be in business to work like some others. I like the core concept of Fonera, and as long as they continue to offer good hardware at good prices like this, it might actually take off and become useful.

    I love the idea of FON, I just wish it wasn't hardware-specific. If there were FON software that I could download and use to share a bit of my WiFi with others, I'd do it in a heartbeat. But the fact that you actually have to buy one of their routers means that there are just too few to make it a reliable away-from-home connection resource, and that undermines the whole idea.


    That said, if I hadn't just upgraded my router a few months ago, I would've definitely considered this instead, so long as it's 802.11n.
