Google gets into femtocells

Yeah, its easy to scratch your head over this one. Until you recall all those articles on the Google grab for dark fibre and networking plans for the iPhone or the persistent rumors of a Google Phone
or even the fact that GOOG411 saves your average Scotsman about $10 a month off his Sprint bill.  Looking forward to getting one…Thank You Google!
