Correct.
I don't have hard facts on this unit as I'm still contemplating getting one.
You don't think of it as a "base" with a certain range like a 2.4GHz 
home phone.
If the unit has a SIM and you have one in your phone from the same 
provider, the unit can be sitting in the west coast and you can make a 
free in-network call from the east coast to the unit and DISA into your 
* box and vice versa.

It might look like I'm doing nothing, but at the cellular level, I'm really quite busy.
