EVDO StompBox Project

Posted on 4/20/2005 by C.K. Sample III

This is cool:

EVDO StompBox Project Turn on your laptop, join the network and voila — you’re on the net! It’s just like using a hotspot (such as they have at Starbucks and airports), but it goes anywhere you car goes.

I want a battery-powered version of this that is small enough to throw into my laptop bag with my 12-inch Powerbook. Internet everywhere!

    Thanks for the mention! :)

    And yes, FYI, I’m working on a smaller one using a different board instead of a soekris. Doing a fully autonomous one about the size of a paperback book is definitely possible.

    Ureka! You have built what I need. I am looking for a portable router system. What I foresee is what the bag phone was years ago. Instead of a handset I want to attach a network camera to allow people to see a live video feed. Can you help? I am more a visionary than inventor. My market is about 40,000+ potential customers. I have looked into portable power and am aware of junxion but want better connectivity and firewall protection possibly.
