Remember Motorola used to sell Canopy with an FPGA and custom silicon for $220 in bulk packs.  $300 isn't crazy.....but you're right to keep an eye on it.

-The Ubiquiti Early Access store lists it for $300. At that low price I'd be quite surprised if it was based on FPGA or Ubnt's proprietay silicon - it's likely Wi-Fi chipset based. This would be the first member of the AirFiber family that is Wi-Fi chipset based, in which case I'd have questions about its performance, especially in number of PPS, and software stability. (Currently the AirFiber line is what I consider Ubiquiti's best products - kind of expected since the ex-Cambium team was involved).

-I'm surprised of the manufacturers (Ubnt and MT) that use a grid dish at 60Ghz; at that wavelengthand considering their experience in using solid dishes, I would think it would be easier and cheaper to use a solid dish.
