The Hotspot Webphone may look like a simple 21st Century replacement for payphones, it is, however, more akin to 'an ATM for telcos' - in that it provides a low cost retail channel, brand exposure, customer service network and supplementary mobile network capacity via its WiFi capability - all of which helps a telco sell more of their core mobile, broadband and fixed line products by bundling the Webphone network services into core product plans.
