So David how much so far have you spent on wireless Manager? Next year or 2 if they come out with new system and tell you to pay again, and tell you old system will not be supported and for newer radio you need new system and will have to pay for all your old AP's to make it work on new system, will you pay them again?
In our case we had spent $20k + hardware so close to $30k on prizm, we could not transfer anything to wireless manager, they wanted us to pay again. Same could happen again with new CNS (or whatever is called now).
