We're currently investigating a Group Response System where a class of students would be given wireless response keypads where they would enter various things....answers to questions etc.  This particular system runs in the 2.4ghz range (of course) and although the company claims minimal interference.....I'm wondering.  They claim, that because their units use fixed frequency (as opposed to spread spectrum) and can be configured to use 1 of 82 channels of 1 MHz in width, they can work on channels 'in-between or above the non-overlapping WLAN hotspots' channels.   In the non-overlapping WLAN scenario they say they can be configured to avoid interference which I read to mean......they can't completely eliminate interference.  Has anyone had experience with these types of devices?

.............thx.............Jamie
