Junxion box for cellular data connection card

Interesting little toy here for $600. I guess you could do it for the
same cost using a cheap laptop, but this has all the support
applications with it.

I almost bought one of these back in November, I spent a great
deal of time on the phone with a very knowledgeable vendor
and it really seemed like this box was perfect for what I needed.

Basically I had opened a new software dev. office and Verizon
was dragging its heels getting DSL in, so I bought an EVDO
card and shared it out so everyone else could get on the network.
I liked the idea of having a Junxion so that I could take my laptop
home without taking the network home with me. However I
did learn at the time that Linksys had a product coming out
that would do the same thing "any time now". Verizon finally
got my DSL installed though within the 15 day window I had
to return the EVDO card, so I just did that instead. By now
I imagine the linksys device is out, and as I recall it was
about 1/3rd the price of the Junxion.

My mistake, it was Kyocera, not Linksys. The Kyocera KR-1
sells for about $250. Check out reviews at www.evdoinfo.com

I can do the same on my Kyocera KR-1. It retails for about $300 but, if
ordered from www.kyocera.com, you get a 15% discount. Bottom line cost
is $255, much better than the Junxion Box at $600 or more.

By the way, the Kyocera KR-1works great.

I think the Linksys U.S.A. box was released at CITA this month.

The version sold in Europe was the equivalent of less than $200.
