( in english, the latency sucks arse ) 2. only truely makes sense for sub 2 mile cell NLOS deployment with BRS/MDS/ITFS Licensed spectrum. ( 2.5 ) licensed- reason being is that the average recieve sensitivity that it will work in a nlos cell is -105 dbm. in a 2.4 enviorment, the average noise floor is at least -95dbm = wont work 50-60% of the time. 3. even if they dropped the price to 10k a sector, its still a rediculous price for a product that doesnt offer any QOS ( and cant offer qos ) to deliver a residential service 4. Their zero truck roll model usually only applies to 60% of customer deployments which = not a zero truck roll model 5. blatent marketing lies = unhappy customers my 2 cents - \lurk - Jeff On Fri, 16 Dec 2005 01:51:44 -0000, "Paul Hendry" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> said: > Hey Dustin, could you elaborate on the "navini sucks" statement?
