Title: RE: [smartBridges] smartBridges launches New Price Initiative

I think there is some confusion. We have only the aBT product for which the price reduction is being applied.   The same product will soon have the N connector and the Surge protection/grounding circuit. The changes are currently being introduced in the factory and the lab is doing the new FCC certification tests. So you will start seeing these units as soon as the stock depletes in the distribution channel. �   With the price reduction now there is only about $14 difference with aBO. So an excellent value for getting an integrated 13db antenna. For most installs this built-in antenna will be sufficient. For a few challenging installs you may need an external antenna that can be connected to the N connector. This kind of flexibility makes it easier on stocking and allows you guys to standardize on one model.   Hope this will help with your deployments.   Nimesh smartBridges     -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Gino Villarini Sent: Thursday, October 09, 2003 5:52 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [smartBridges] smartBridges launches New Price Initiative   whats the diff. between the ABOT and a ABT with n connector?   Gino -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]On Behalf Of Joe Laura Sent: Wednesday, October 08, 2003 11:22 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [smartBridges] smartBridges launches New Price Initiative It looks like we will be getting around a $40.00 reduction on the ABT price and if I am hearing right a $100.00 reduction on the ABOT. Soon I hear the ABT units will have N connectors. I guess it will meen less units we have to stock. Superior Wireless New Orleans,La. www.superior1.com ----- Original Message ----- From: Nimesh D.

But for larger quantities you may be able to get a better deal.   Nimesh     -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Gino Villarini Sent: Thursday, October 09, 2003 10:35 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [smartBridges] smartBridges launches New Price Initiative   ABI too?   Gino -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]On Behalf Of Nimesh D. Parikh Sent: Wednesday, October 08, 2003 10:28 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [smartBridges] smartBridges launches New Price Initiative Yes there is a price drop for aBT. Actually quite a substantial one for this product.   We had some confusion about the new pricing with our distribution partners. This has been clarified now and you will begin to see the difference in the coming days.   Nimesh smartBridges �   -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Chris Chance Sent: Thursday, October 09, 2003 7:47 AM To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Subject: RE: [smartBridges] smartBridges launches New Price Initiative   Can we expect a price drop on the ABT's I hope so would make fighting my competition A LOT EASIER I mean a 50$ or 25$ drop would really give me and I feel others that use the product the edge to win. But right now im equal with competitors :( Chris PS: Havent seen any drops yet. -----Original Message----- From: George [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, October 08, 2003 6:44 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [smartBridges] smartBridges launches New Price Initiative   Well that may be from the USA to the UK. But that gear comes from Asia someplace and it shouldn't cost more to get to the UK from Asia.
