Bug Labs & Verizon – Open source hardware on a 3G network – legit, too :)

As far I can recall this is the first time an open source hardware product has been certified for 3G networks. There are many milestones in open source hardware, and there will be many more – this is one of them.

Get on the country’s most reliable network, with full compliance, day one! BUG’s 3G modems are all pre- certified to work on Verizon Wireless. BUGs are also FCC and CE certified, which means you can build and deploy them right away, no further testing required.
