AT&T To Sell Special Wi-Fi Routers to iPhone Users?
It’s a Wi-Fi router. OK, it’s an 802.11n Wi-Fi router with DSL and service via AT&T. With the Gateway, you’ll be able to send and receive calls via your iPhone’s Wi-Fi at home. Kind of a cool idea, much like T-Mobile’s UMA initiative. What’s unknown is if it’s a special AT&Tified router, or if you can upgrade a standard router or network. Chances are AT&T is using it as a way to bundle even more services into what it’ll call an “environment” or “platform” or “personal money-sucking network”.
I guess we’ll find out tomorrow. Again may I say, I’m so ready for this week to be over.
