Like a lot of the other commentors, I'm confused about why Verizon wants to charge a monthly fee. Perhaps that price is for folks who don't already have a wireless contract with Verizon. That would make sense, since $35 per month is competitive with the price of other landline services (assuming that includes unlimted minutes).
I hope Verizon doesn't think existing cellphone customers will pay an additional $35 for a service they already have. If so, they may be mistaken; contract-free alternatives to HUB currently exist. GE, for example, makes a line of handsets that can answer your cellphone calls.
Sony's just released a 15.5-inch addition to its VAIO S Series that not only adds a crucial bit of extra display acreage, but also bumps things up to a full 1080p.

No they don't offer fancy touchscreens, but the basic handset functionality is there.
