There seems to be more information on this EBay page where somebody is selling 
them.  That's where I first noticed them, and thought it seemed like a good 
idea to not require a computer.  I don't know if the seller is Glentek or not.

They seem to be targeting their device to amateurs, which appeals to me.  
Trouble is, if it's designed for hams or not, I don't think I know enough about 
network communication to make the thing work.
