We first covered the Vodafone Access Gateway here, basically this femtocell allows you to connect selected Vodafone UK phones to it via 3G and it will transmit back to Vodafone using your Home Broadband connection (minimum 1Mbps required), allowing you to provide yourself with decent 3G coverage at home (or work) if the coverage provided by Vodafone is not as good as you would like.

Well, Andrew Grill over at London Calling decided to buy one the week of release to provide a better Vodafone signal in his basement flat, and he has published his review here.  Although it shows a few teething troubles with the stores, he reports that it works “as advertised and the calls made on it seem clear”.
