To Whom It May Concern;

As a dedicated T-Mobile customer I implore you to reveal the necessary qualifications to participate in assessing the impending Android Hub in collaboration with my t-mobile@home account. I am amazed with the technological advancements and would really enjoy participating with this particular venture. Please contact me with any/all information available to this southern bell in the Golden Traingle.

Yawn. The problem with the landline replacement devices (and that’s the primary reason these exist) is that DSL’s market penetration makes this a dumb buy because you either have to keep the landline for it to function or switch to another broadband delivery system. For the tech savvy consumer, this doesn’t offer anything that a good PC wouldn’t.

Not even close to the intended purpose, but when I see the bottom picture, I think, “Hooray, just reverse that phone to the other side, make it a G1, and it’s that thing I want!. There’s a keyboard that folds up somewhere, right?”

I mean, doesn’t everyone want a little netbook that can use their phone alternately for a mouse, a proper number imput pad, a VOIP phone,(I still don’t have free international calling) all while recharging it?

I have been a T-mobile customer since the VoiceStream days and like their efforts in introducing new innovative products and services along with an open system approach. I have a G1 and it is great. I am looking forward to an Android powered home station or tablet. I recently migrated my home phone to a T-Mobile UMA phone that works as a cell and over wifi seemlessly. The $10/month unlimited wifi calling replaced a $30/mo land line and it has been a very positive change. I hope that any offering on the home station or tablet front will take advantage of my current setup and expand Android to other devices in my home.

I’ve always thought the @home service had huge potential, but as of yet haven’t been able to get behind it. This is the product I was waiting for to prove me right. And it’s Android to boot! Whoop! My next question: Will it have the Market? ;-)

Back in January, when we first saw the Nimble, I want it to use as an alarm clock, tied into my Google Calendar. Especially if I can have different calendars within Googel Calendar only throw alarms at certain places (ie. I only want my wake-up alarm to ring in the bedroom; but my “go catch the bus to come home” alarm I want to only ring on my phone).

I’m still hoping that comes to pass. But the idea that it might be tied to T-Mobile might be interesting. Especially if it will act as a T-Mobile Hotspot@Home device, and/or as a femtocell device.
P.S. – Sorry, forgot to tell you great post!
