It's a neat solution where for less then DSL you can get out of band
over evdo to all your console ports/ethernet, and it also gives you a
POTS line over the evdo. I commented on how this was needed for years
and Chris Cook over there actually went out and built this neat box.
I believe it runs about $35-40 MRC and it's a much quicker way to
upload new code then a pots line.
Neat part is if it works you do not pay the carrier hotel a cross
connect MRC fee. That adds up rapidly.
