Ben, when is the RocketAC-Prism coming out and what is the difference with the current RocketAC that already has the Prism system in it?

Wireless is most definitely not dead. Just in the past couple months we have released/announced: LiteBeam AC RocketAC-Prism EdgePoint (for wireless deployments on towers) AF-3X AF-2X AF-2X and 3X antennas 300/400mm AC PowerBeam AirPrism Sector CRM Point - Network management Backwards compatibility is also being released to allow for transition, along with a ton of other software features (airMagic, etc...). There are also a lot of wireless products still in the works not yet announced. Anyway, we are working hard to continue to push things along.

Except for Chuck of course. It seems to me they believe wireless is near dead so it isn't worth it. Solar being the future and all. Really I think it is a case of shiny object syndrome. UBNT always seems to have lacked some focus, or at least perseverance. Not to bash then to much. They defiant have a value product. I think they are hurting as the price of what I would term as better products have closed the price gap a good bit.

If other companies can make sync work with atheros chipsets, I have to assume Ubiquiti could too... if they really wanted to.

But if I had to guess, my money would be on they boxed themselves in by developing the hardware and the airMax protocol first, and then couldn’t get GPS sync to work without starting over.
