No one is saying f'off but you. I responding to your disbelief. I'm never going to convince everyone, nor will we ever be a fit for everyone, nor do we want everyone. Right now we are attracting a pretty good crowd, mostly consisting of long time Cambium users. And I mean major WISPs; lots of them. They'll be outing themselves as they move beyond trials. Some already have. You don't think Cambium's sudden promo re paying you to upgrade from 320 to 450 is an accident or simple act of good will do you?
In any event, the question of affordability is not one I can answer for you. I can only inform what WE think and share the feedback of others. Making the economic works is just as much a "it depends" reality on your side as is my not having a stock number for a "system" I can quote you. Notice though I have tried anyway and I've been clear on CPE numbers; those are simple enough to provide. I have lots of small WISPs entering trials and a few in deployment. When BridgeNet in Ocala, FL pulled the trigger, they only have about 200 UBNT up. They tried that and all the usual suspects for almost 2 years to no success. Then they tried the COMPACT and it completely altered their entire business model.
