As soon as the vendors run out of things to sell, let's manufacture a reason to 
go buy something else.

haven't i seen a presentation again and again how this trend reverses every 
what, 10 years? 
so, maybe, soon, it'll all start moving back to the desktop/server less cloud 
again? 

some things belong in the cloud. most things do not. 

(my take on things)

I want to first go on record as saying I to dislike the idea of a cloud based 
management tool. 

However, I also remember all of us bitching about AC being a Java app and not 
having a web UI for our phones and other devices. When Ben Moore said that we 
would not have to worry about that in the next version I kind of thought about 
a hosted solution, but thought “Oh surly not”. 

Another point that I want to make is that US WISPs are not their largest 
market. I am sure that it is a large market for them but not the largest. I 
expect they are trying to be uniform across all their platforms worldwide. I 
assume we will see Unifi and Mfi eventually go ALL Cloud based. Everything from 
AP, CPE, Router, WiFi, Lights, Phones, Cameras, and even thermostat controlled 
from the cloud. 

The hacking possibility of all this is huge. But everything I see is moving 
this way. The local school Corp in our area just released 2 techs and converted 
ever thing they could to virtual off-site with remote monitoring and control of 
all equipment from WiFi Aps and Net Switches to Servers and workstations. The 
IT Manager says he loves the reduced work load but sees now he has handed the 
keys to someone else and has a lot less control. All he does now is move wires 
and swap equipment. 

All the NEST products, personal IP Security Cameras all are already in the 
cloud. The general techy populous are starting to except it. I think lots of 
WISPs will be less likely since they feel less in control of their networks and 
we are all about control. But I don’t think we are going to stop this trend.

Well right. That's why I said few and not none.

It was in alpha for 7-8 months before it hit the "public" beta today. josh

Ok, but when the device contacts the cloud why can't the cloud at that point 
start the update? I'm not really familiar with the product but what is the 
frequency of the cloud to ground discharge ( or the other way around )...
