Right, but just the way they describe it, it does not seem like mesh, at
all, in the technical sense.

It seems like a great user concept, and a great user experience for
managing access from a variety of devices or people to the internet
backhaul on your phone or 3g-enabled laptop or tablet.

Anyhow, I could be wrong. It just raises the hairs on my neck in the
same way that people through around terms like "secure" or "private"...
and of course also "mesh".

I would be glad to be wrong, and I should probably just play with it myself.
