Clear's iSpot is a 4G mobile hotspot that only works on Apple iDevices

General

So… we’re not sure why Clear decided to make a hotspot that only works with Apple iDevices — or as they put it, “was built and optimized by CLEAR for Apple mobile devices” — but they have. The iSpot is a shiny, white, iDevice exclusive, 4G mobile hotspot that can be purchased directly from Clear for $29 (limited-time offer). The mobile router will provide your iThings with 4G speeds on Clearwire’s 4G WiMax network for the very attractive price of $25 per month.  The device, as advertised, will allow you to “connect up to eight of your favorite Wi-Fi-enabled Apple mobile devices” while on the go. The device does use standard Wi-Fi, but it employs MAC address filtering to only allowing iDevices (iPods, iPad, iPhones) to connect; which is probably why the monthly price is only $25. It looks like the iSpot will match your new white iPhone 4 perfectly… oh, wait…

    4g is being rolled out weekly and should be available in all major cities by end of this year. I totally love the speeds!

    The 4g coverage is weak to say the least. Not only that, if you live in a 4g area, drive 15 minutes outside the city and chances are, no 4g anymore.

      Thats weird. 4G just launched here a month and a half ago, and I live 30 minutes outside the city and am perfectly blanketed.

      Go spew your shit elsewhere troll.
