Rules:

*You can teleport into and out of it at will

*It has a couple of plug sockets and can connect to internet from the region you teleported in from

*You can take objects and people with you

*As already stated, it is (3m)^3 (3m*3m*3m). The walls are plain plaster with a light in the middle of the ceiling. The pocket dimension is topologically toroidal, so if there weren't walls and a ceiling/floor (which you can actually destroy) you would loop if you went more than 3m in any direction. Gravity, then, is artificial and can be altered to anywhere from 0 to 2g from a dial on the wall.

Edit: additional specifications

*You can only teleport out to where you teleported in from.

*Time proceeds at the same rate inside the pocket dimension

*There is an eject button for those inside to get out if something happens to you

I think you misunderstood something.

You can only teleport out to where you teleported in from.

Yes, so it’s not a transportation device. It does carry stuff with it. So you can put something in it at home, and take it out at work, or wherever.

It's not a transportation device, but I can put people in it one place and take them out at another? Does everyone/everything else follow a different set of rules than me, owner of the pocket dimension?

People can’t, including you, but things can be moved. You can put you laptop in there, then take it out at work. At least that’s how I interpreted the rule.
