I picked up the device yesterday after a week and 2 days of application.
Initial thoughts is that the device is not exaclty pretty nor is it ugly.
A bit irritated about the USB as opposed to Ethernet but hey, teething stages.
It was extremely easy to setup although the guide they give you in the box is wrong. I setup on Vista Ultimate 32bit.
First speed test was disapointing, but moved it a bit and got 3/4 bars and good speeds of 103kb/s actual download transfer rate and 57kb/s actual upload trasfer rate. Just to let you know I'm about 500m away from excellent coverage, but high up and on the second floor of my house.
Tried the phone out, the buttons suck a bit but I was quite impressed with the quality of the voice calls as well as the services you get with Neotel, being Caller ID, Call Waiting, Call forwarding and Call Baring. Only thing is the ringer isn't quite loud enough for me and I would love to be able to plug in a portable phone to it.
During the calls, my internet slows down to about 5kb/s and shoots back up as soon as I put the phone down, so thats cool.
I couldn't get my torrents to have
green faces, only 
yellow ones, so did a Nat test and the ports are closed. One quick email last night and I got a call this morning saying it will be done today and I will receive a call as to when it is.
Overall I think I'm quite happy with the product and service and it is far better than iburst in terms of what you get for your money, 3.5 times the cap at the same price. (i'm with iBurst also btw)

Didn't even know the line got effect that badly, referring to PeteGT (5kb/s)
