I ride both sides of this fence
I started out leasing all of my CPE in March 2004 and for the next 24
months did more leases when we needed more CPE, buying 100 at a time.
We reached a point where it looked like it didn't make a lot of sense to
continue the leasing. The rates were getti
I can tell you now, the sales volume would be MUCH less if the price
went up... yes, they have great functionality, but a lot of people are
buying them because of the price alone. Even if an RB532 went up to only
$200, it becomes more cost effective to buy Trango, Canopy, etc. for
less money (b
That is about average for an XO company :)

All I can say is, this is great. Thanks so much to you guys (and gal) for
doing this work. For me, this CALEA safe harbor work you are doing alone

I would disagree with that.
Further, I would say that most of the folks using an MT/StarOS system
would tell you that price had little or nothing to do with their

Mac,
The big thing everyone forgets about the leases... you can buy in much
higher quantities, thus cancelling out all the interest.
We now buy CPE 250 at a time. So, even after 3 years of interest, I am
paying the same as the guy buying them 10 at a time. :)

Jeff,
I think part of the reason attendance was so low was for the lack of
advertising. Unless you were on certain lists there was very little
mention of WISPCON. Plus the fact that previous shows were canceled made

It is really unfortunate that more people didn't go. Despite the low
