I was referring to On-the-Fly Dual Pol, Dual Freq, Dual Radio, Dual Ethernet.  Or improved manufacturering methods, allowing lower costs of production.  But you've answered that point in past posts of this thread already.  I guess all I was trying to say was, why not take the same pride that Alvarion has with innovating their software, and put the same effort into hardware features.  I admit, the hardware is really well built, and does not have a lot of room to improve, but I'm not sure their has been a significant hardware advancement since the product line was first developed (4 years ago?), as far as adding new features.   
 
Alvarion may actually have Dual port/radio models, but its a hefty aditional cost, not something just thrown in as standard.  A second Ethernet port for example, only has a manufacturer's cost of less than $15, and is something that should be thrown in for low cost, such as Tranzeo has done with their second Ethernet POE out port model.
 
So to summerize, I am not challenging the quality of hardware, just advancement of new features. Each year I like to see the cost keep come down or the features keep getting added.

Hi Tom. What hardware features are you referring to?
