Special hardware? It's a chip set. Just like a chip that operates on a different frequency. Phones weren't UMTS years ago. And the lineup didn't transform overnight. Of course they have limited devices at launch. What's to not understand? What do you mean you don’t see the point? Special hardware? It’s a chip set.

What’s to not understand?

Also, if Slingbox becomes popular you can look for carriers to start limiting bandwidth or blocking altogether.

Still don't see the point to this. A fee-based service that requires "special" handsets with the appropriate hardware? Nah, why bother? Instead everyone buy a slingbox or Orb and get unlimited data and be done with it. @ MisRemembered:
