If you want I can give sB a award for best new start and the company with the smallest inventory. A award mean so little. Sometimes just knowing the right person will give you a award for being a candidate. *I* have more self manufactured APs in use then vivato have delivered. But then they want what was it last time I heard 80k ? or was it 60k ? I wounder what the price of them will be tomorrow. $90k ?
