fon.com is a bunch of scam, maybe
I think they are just overloaded with friendly folk who want to share their wifi. Or, it's a fraud, I signed up earlier and got an email stating I'd be contacted soon about my purchase of a sweet router for half price. Never got contacted. Ok, they lost my request, no big deal, I'll sign up again. This time you actually have to sign up, create a user, password, submit email address. Went through the hoops but still can't get to the point where I buy anything.
copy and paste of an email from FON to follow dated 2/7/06:
"Hi, xxxxxxxxxx!
Congratulations! You are among one of the 3,000 first users to benefit from our 25$/. (VAT and delivering costs not included) special offer for a FON Ready router.
In the next few days we will contact you to finalize the purchase. Welcome and thanks for joining the FON Community!
FON Team"
strange that they are saying 1,000 users now, and I've never been contacted to finalize the purchase.
