Well, couldn't the same technology be brought to cell phones? The iPhone and many other mobile devices have Wifi...you could communicate to the phone via wifi, then the phone would internally route IP to the cellular network. Sounds like something that's right around the corner.

And as usual, will cost you extra, on top of your unlimited data plan. Yay! More charges. I hate cellphone carriers. ]]>Apr 27th 2009 11:24AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/04/27/kts-egg-gives-your-wifi-device-access-to-the-wonderful-world-o/http://www.engadget.com/2009/04/27/kts-egg-gives-your-wifi-device-access-to-the-wonderful-world-o/Apr 27th 2009 11:43AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/04/27/kts-egg-gives-your-wifi-device-access-to-the-wonderful-world-o/http://www.engadget.com/2009/04/27/kts-egg-gives-your-wifi-device-access-to-the-wonderful-world-o/
So, really they have achieved their goals?

Maybe because it's Monday morning, but I can't seem to wrap my head around the difference between this and a standard Wi-Fi router.]]>Apr 27th 2009 11:33AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/04/27/kts-egg-gives-your-wifi-device-access-to-the-wonderful-world-o/http://www.engadget.com/2009/04/27/kts-egg-gives-your-wifi-device-access-to-the-wonderful-world-o/Apr 27th 2009 1:32PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/04/27/kts-egg-gives-your-wifi-device-access-to-the-wonderful-world-o/http://www.engadget.com/2009/04/27/kts-egg-gives-your-wifi-device-access-to-the-wonderful-world-o/Apr 27th 2009 3:25PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/04/27/kts-egg-gives-your-wifi-device-access-to-the-wonderful-world-o/http://www.engadget.com/2009/04/27/kts-egg-gives-your-wifi-device-access-to-the-wonderful-world-o/

I was just about to book a ticket to Seoul to check out these apple stores in MyeongDong and SamseongDong!

I don't know if Apple store will do well in S. Korea. I think I read somewhere that iRiver still outsells the ipod in S Korea.

They also sell cameras, game systems and games. I haven't been to Myeongdong in a while, but I'm willing to bet that the "apple" store there is just like, if not the same as, the "a# shop".]]>Apr 28th 2009 2:18AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/04/27/kts-egg-gives-your-wifi-device-access-to-the-wonderful-world-o/http://www.engadget.com/2009/04/27/kts-egg-gives-your-wifi-device-access-to-the-wonderful-world-o/Apr 28th 2009 6:40AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/04/27/kts-egg-gives-your-wifi-device-access-to-the-wonderful-world-o/http://www.engadget.com/2009/04/27/kts-egg-gives-your-wifi-device-access-to-the-wonderful-world-o/Apr 27th 2009 12:59PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/04/27/kts-egg-gives-your-wifi-device-access-to-the-wonderful-world-o/http://www.engadget.com/2009/04/27/kts-egg-gives-your-wifi-device-access-to-the-wonderful-world-o/Apr 27th 2009 1:33PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/04/27/kts-egg-gives-your-wifi-device-access-to-the-wonderful-world-o/http://www.engadget.com/2009/04/27/kts-egg-gives-your-wifi-device-access-to-the-wonderful-world-o/Apr 27th 2009 2:09PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/04/27/kts-egg-gives-your-wifi-device-access-to-the-wonderful-world-o/http://www.engadget.com/2009/04/27/kts-egg-gives-your-wifi-device-access-to-the-wonderful-world-o/Apr 27th 2009 1:56PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/04/27/kts-egg-gives-your-wifi-device-access-to-the-wonderful-world-o/http://www.engadget.com/2009/04/27/kts-egg-gives-your-wifi-device-access-to-the-wonderful-world-o/Apr 28th 2009 1:34AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/04/27/kts-egg-gives-your-wifi-device-access-to-the-wonderful-world-o/http://www.engadget.com/2009/04/27/kts-egg-gives-your-wifi-device-access-to-the-wonderful-world-o/
I'm sorry, but how does the low number of WiBro (ie. "wireless") subscribers match up with Korea's goal to be the most "wired" nation?]]>Apr 28th 2009 2:26AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/04/27/kts-egg-gives-your-wifi-device-access-to-the-wonderful-world-o/http://www.engadget.com/2009/04/27/kts-egg-gives-your-wifi-device-access-to-the-wonderful-world-o/
At that moment, iPod touch users are increasing, there is no iPhone in Korea, and iPod users get annoyed at trying to find opened Wi-Fi network. So, egg will be great decision for iPod touch users, I think.]]>Apr 28th 2009 6:52AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/04/27/kts-egg-gives-your-wifi-device-access-to-the-wonderful-world-o/http://www.engadget.com/2009/04/27/kts-egg-gives-your-wifi-device-access-to-the-wonderful-world-o/
Since the writers at Engadget either forgot to write about it or didn't know failed to post the battery life on the device.

The estimated battery life of this "egg" is 4 hours

Oh and if anyone is curious about how much the WiBro service is in Korea, let me give you and idea by providing this table

Unlimited 50 : It gives you 50 GB bandwidth limit for 27000 Wons ($20) (New subscribers will be given free "Egg")

Unlimited 30 : It gives you 30 GB bandwidth limit for 19800 Wons ($15) (And New subscribers will be given 100,000 Wons ($75) off for the "Egg")

and maybe keep the Egg or give it back to the Apple store or something? I wanna use my ipod touch as a phone while I stay there.

Also, will this router work with America's Wimax?]]>May 15th 2009 6:25PM
