I thought this was a really neat little trick. Cost probably $1 to manufacture and it can do some cool stuff. Gimmicky for sure, but it's nice to see google doing things that are still really simple and appeal to the core of their audience rather than some uber complex device that does nothing (though I'm sure they are guilty of that as well).

Yes, but can it beat 75Mbps down, 25Mbps up?

I'm already thinking about ditching the iPhone 5S I just bought two months ago. I'm not sure how satisfied I am with it anymore. Since switching plans to Verizon from Sprint, I can't switch back to my LG Optimus.

I'm probably going to be switching from Verizon too in a few months. That's what I'm already looking at. Not too concerned about having to break the contract as I'm already disappointed with them. I jumped too soon on the switch, but what can you do??

First thing I will do is root it..

If you buy the phone directly from Google its really not necessary for most people. Switch it to ipv4 and enjoy.
