I've been looking for dual-slant 900mhz omni options that would allow lower-cost PMP450 900mhz deployment on middle-of-the-woods towers where there are only a small number of customers (and low noise). I know that "omnis suck compared to sectors", but having nothing at all sucks more. Due to the difficulty of designing dual-slant antennas and the small market, options are very few.
Commscope has the CH360QS, only 5dbi gain at ~900mhz... and it's a cellular base station omni with all the fancy doodads: 1800-2200Mhz band that WISPs can't use, internal GPS antenna, internal diplexer, remote-controlled signal tilt on the upper band, etc. At $3500 per antenna I hope that it makes your breakfast too. Alpha has the best design that I found at present, the AW3464. ~7dbi gain http://alphaantennas.com/products/small-cells/aw3464/ . It's ~$1200 USD which is still inexpensive compared to any other NLOS options. But currently those antennas cannot be bought - I spoke with Crossover Distribution and Alpha, they haven't received enough POs to make a production run, need 50 orders at a bare minimum. So if anyone else is really interested in one or more of these antennas, ready to buy for sure if they are available, e-mail me "If available, I will buy x number of the Alpha AW3464 at $1200/USD each from Crossover." and I'll make a list, once it hits 50+ antennas I'll speak with Crossover and see if it can happen.
