I often visit the USA for several weeks at a time.

With this device, I'll simply be able to plug the cell into my broadband in the US and have access as if I was home in the UK, without any worries!

I do begrudge the idea of paying Vodafone for traffic in the UK, but outside, this sounds ideal!

Although the house is a single-family dwelling, when I give out my new address to organizations I want to append a fake, but unique, apartment number, like #A100, #101, etc. Then when I start to get spam to my house #A115, I can lookup in my database who sold my info (then complain and get free stuff). Will the (US) post office care? Is this legal? Will FedEx/UPS/DHL get confused? Yeah, yeah I know. slownewsday.
