Re: Wi-fi. Approaching customers

Actually it was a live setup.  It was a live demonstration of their 
product and not a pretty little powerpoint presentation.  They brought in 
1 sensor and an AP to calibrate the room.  Usually you would use 3 to 4 
sensors in a production environment but this was just a demonstration and 
they had limited time/resources.  Of course we would like to get our hands 
on some eval hardware to do our own testing but we are still discussing 
some other issues before we go that far.
