KickStarter – How To Switch Your iPod Into An iPhone
Well, this is an ambitious project but could and certainly seems to be doing incredibly well, only a few days into its KickStarter project. FreedomPop, as it is known is offering to deliver 100% free 4G mobile broadband internet access, connecting consumer devices virtually anywhere at anytime, in the US. Now who wouldn’t want this?
This will allow you to stream music and videos on your iPod anywhere, for free. You will also be able to use Apple’s FaceTime wherever you are, for free. You do have to purchase the sleeve for $100 first of all, but then you’re done, for life. The service will provide 500MB Free broadband every month, up to 1GB Free Broadband by referring friends and perhaps best of all, no contract, no commitment, you can cancel anytime!
So far this project has attracted 152 backers with $23,974 pledged of a $100,000 goal plus there’s 39 days to go. I think this is going to do well.
