Using your Rover Hub

Lookin’ into replacing your home modem & getting a new ISP? The Rover Hub is a great option if you want super fast speeds but aren’t into commitment. You get unlimited 4G but only have to pay for it when you want it – just $5/day, $20/week or $50/month. Check out these demo videos to see what you’ll get when you buy a Rover Hub:

What is the Internet?!

“And then it sounded stupid when I said it, ‘violence at NBC.’”

You probably saw this hilarious clip from a 1994 episode of the Today Show last week but did you hear the LAME news that the guy who put it up got fired? Bummer huh? NBC must not realize we just love seeing how far we’ve come. No harm in that, right?

Facebook Games

Are you surprised at all that Facebook games like FarmVille and CityVille are rakin’ it in like this? They’re making more money than Madden NFL & Halo Reach!

Kinda wonder if the next generation of kids will even game offline…what do you think?

‘Like’ T-Pain’s new tattoo?

We’re not even sure what to say about this one. Is it clever or just plain ridiculous?

As Adrian Chen explains on Giz: he’ll “be forced to spend his 70s and 80s explaining to young people what his tattoo means, after Facebook is replaced with cranial implants.”

It’s a trap!

iPhone Tethering Alternative

evologynow — Thu, 27 Jan 2011 23:13:45 +0000

You’ve of course heard the big news that Verizon will finally be carrying the iPhone and that within the next couple months the phone will also function as a hotspot. The idea of turning your phone into a hotspot is old news for all of you that already have hotspot-capable phones, but so is the realization that a smartphone doesn’t make that great of a wireless hotspot!

Before you shell out that extra $20 a month to your provider for iPhone tethering check out this article in BNET about the Smarter, Cheaper Alternative to iPhone Tethering: getting an actual mobile hotspot device. It goes into the various reasons (price, share-ability, battery life and more) why reconsidering that tethering charge is better for your wallet & your smartphone.

Groupon

Did you see The Oatmeal today because it pretty much gets Winter 2010 EXACTLY right. This part about Groupon in particular is spot on. I mean really, who cared about coupons before Groupon came outta nowhere and made them cool again?

No Facetime on Verizon iPhone

As you know, the iPhone finally came to Verizon this week. We’re sure some of you were bummed to find out that just like on the AT&T iPhone, you can only use FaceTime on a wifi connection. Lucky for you Facetime is #nbd for the Rover Puck. Our 4G wireless is crazy fast so it’s a breeze to make those video calls regardless of whether your iphone’s on Verizon or AT&T.

Multitask like a boss

evologynow — Thu, 20 Jan 2011 00:27:54 +0000

Keepin’ busy online? We’re pretty heavy data users too but it’s no big deal with the Rover Puck. All Rover devices offer unlimited 4G so you can stream music, video, games & more to your heart’s content. Even if that means watching The Sandlot, the History of Dance video and streaming Pandora radio all at once.

How do you multitask?
