I'm curious if any of the other parties have added a web browser or similar to enable talking on hotspots that require web authentication... AFAIK, the NetGear doesn't have this feature.

@Eric Hundman
They are Skype over WiFi only. They don't do cellular. The only potential problem may be if you violate the TOS of your broadband provider. I'm pretty sure Verizon's EVDO TOS says "no voip." That doesn't mean you can't do it. Just that you are violating the TOS if you do.
