Mar 20 10:58:06 yeah, not clear at all Mar 20 16:54:29 meh, sounds like SIP VoIP with fallback to WWAN Mar 20 16:54:59 nasically I got this with my N900 since err 11 yeahs now? Mar 20 16:56:34 complete nonsesne to make a new product of it... just like Skype (VoIP), Whatsapp (IRC)... none of those had any sense and thus no success either ;-P Mar 20 16:58:30 actually I suspect they want to combine SIP with mesh WLAN like vodafone homespot already exists Mar 20 16:59:28 just vodafone already has a several 100k of APs in Germany. Like 20++ in 100m radius of my home Mar 20 17:00:16 and every user can use them all when user opens own routermodem to participate Mar 20 17:01:48 but sure, ignoring there's SIP already, you for sure can bash together a new HW/SW package product of al that, with complete fail since you won't reach a coverage of >0.01% if at all Mar 21 00:05:12 DocScrutinizer05: sounds like it is more actually, the chargers are also some kind of radio base station Mar 21 00:08:18 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5F7RjuHsUJc **** ENDING LOGGING AT Thu Mar 21 02:59:57 2019
