I so remember those ads, the guy carrying a suitcase computer gets onto an elevator and up into a lot of light!  (as in gone to heaven?)  That was a fail?  I knew several co-workers who bought one.  Compaq came out with something similar and then TRS came out with something a little better.  But for the time period these were fantastic.  This was back when an IBM PC not the AT was still going for $4k and no hard drive.

In our wisp we have several 900Mhz radios.  They work just fine where 2ghz and 3ghz would not work and forget the 5ghz.  Hopefully they'll last another year.

Has Tarana done this by announcing the G2 while all they have shipping is the G1?

Or is the G2 so much more expensive that it’s just for window shopping anyway?  I figure if these are being bought with BEAD money, frugality may be out the window.
