How does it work?
Butter Box is a self-contained microserver and wifi hotspot. Once you join, you can access apps, connect to secure messaging, join a public chatroom, access maps, or any other content and services. ButterBox works even when there's no Internet. Just stop by the box to download more apps or check in on your chatrooms. Everything is stored right there.
