Re: New Portable Internet/Phone from Rogers
Just in case anyone is interested in the size of the Rocket Hub, here are a couple pictures of mine. You can see by the rear photo there are 4 wired ports and the phone plug. According to the specifications on this, you can plug 3 old fashion phone or 20 modern phone to this. It has built in WiFi which is a nice feature too.
My wife and I are still considering the phone but we have a couple of issues with using it for our home phone. If the power goes out, the Hub and phone stop working. The battery backup that is available for the Hub doesn't last long enough if there is an extended power outage. The other problem is 911. These work off the cellular network and are not linked to a home address. If there's an emergency, the 911 operator will not have an address show up on their system.
