I beleive NH, Like Maine and MA, will be charging for the ezpass device about$27.50 ea. However you can order one from NY for $0.00 and it will work for the entire east coast.

New York changed their rules and now will only issue transponders to NY state residents. Luckily I'm grandfathered since I got mine several years ago before NJ also started using EZ Pass. The Garden State Parkway and NJ Turnpike have now instituted high speed EZ Pass at several toll plazas, the extreme left lane booths were removed and only readers hang down over the lanes. You proceed at the posted speed limit, which in the case of the northernmost toll on the GSP is 65 mph. I think this is great and would be a help at the Hampton Tolls to cut down on weekend backups.
