wifiex
Save your home internet for use outside of home?!
For $200 you get a WifiEX which can be "charged" to 10Gb of internet

What the...
Any takers that "charging" this device is making your home PC into a malware endpoint, but they include a prepaid 3G account in the device to use up that "credit"?

This one is absolute winner
I at first tried to rationalize the idea thinking may be it was something similar to off-line browsing, i.e. some smart algorithm downloading internet sites based on your browsing history so you could browse the downloaded data offline then, but after seeing this answer from the team it gets my High 5 BS marks

And yes , we will also try to cover the whole planet with satellites for sure , so you will be able to have internet everywhere you go
