I'm not complainging about you dinscontinue it really it's this
increadibly short notice. I had a order placed almost a month and a
half ago of things that got ordered and on the last order the APPi
where scratched from the order by sB and that was the first time the
distributor found out about it. Would been nice to have gotten my
unit. I think I might have gotten hold of a unit. In this case I
really need the indoor unit. It's going to be a link across a stream
and I will setup the units in a ptp link for maximum security. The
units will be sitting in a window so don't want a external antenna
connector or anything bigger then the rudder ducky.

If the deal don't work out I will want you to ship out a unit to my
distributor (actually 2) since that is what I paid for 1.5 months ago.

NP> Hi Eje,

NP> I guess this is the first complain we got for discontinuing these
NP> products. They are being discontinued because of low level of activity.
NP> So there are not many people using them. And till now everybody has
NP> readily agreed to take the aPPO as a substitute. 

NP> If you are in a bind, please let us know. We will work out some special
NP> arrangement for you. 

NP> Nish

DC>> Message'we have decided to discontinue the airPoint PRO Indoor'
NP> Oh...
DC>> well... in that case... I guess I will get an aPPO in repeater mode
NP> and a
DC>> line splitter eh? ...glad I asked... <g>

DC>> I have never hooked 2 antennas to an aPPO. Can anyone recommend a

DC>> (I know EC et.al. have splitters, but I have no experience with any
