It seems the rumors of AT&T Wireless prepping an in-home femtocell device are indeed true.

We reported recently that AT&T has been testing their own femtocell device to be released at some point in the future, but all of a sudden the device seems much more real with the launch of an informational page on their website.  The most shocking revelation is that opposed to the Sprint AIRAVE and Verizon Network Extender, this device will work only with 3G phones, such as their exclusive iPhone.

Other tidbits of information that have been revealed is that it will handle up to four calls at once, there will be individual and family plans for service (meaning Verizon is alone in not having you pay a monthly fee to use their device), will cover the standard 5,000 square feet of space and more.  The biggest omissions in the information is the release date, the cost of the unit and the costs of the different monthly service plans.

Soon everyone will be able to have one of these cell phone extenders in their home or office, meaning companies will never need to build another tower at this rate.
