Chris, Yes in our case but that was probably due to the fact that we had some sectors with over 25 CPE, which is really more then a rocket AP can handle when we sell 4, 6, and 10Mbps plans, although with the Prisms we now offer a 25 Mbps plan. The second cpu on the Prism for Airmax really helps. Plus while I can't say when it will be released, they do have GPS sync capability (in 8.1 Alpha).
