There is more to Canopy than timing. Until a cheap manufacturer ditches the atheros chipset they will never compete RF wise with Canopy. Its hard to beat a system that has had millions poured into it by the best RF engineers in the world :-D
Timing in an atheros chipset though would make the case for Canopy more difficult though.
