Waverider: Pretty solid stuff, but horribly overpriced IMO. Also the 
brand name has been passed around a couple times, and every few months I 
hear vicious rumors about how it's gonna get discontinued or at least 
re-made in a new and wholly incompatible way. Not bad, but there's 
better stuff out there. Built-in bandwidth management and QOS, and the 
polling mechanism is nice.

Trango: Haven't used their 900 gear.

Tranzeo: Amazingly awesome. The same unit is AP and CPE (just flip a 
software switch), so you don't have to keep two kinds of spares on the 
shelf. Reasonably priced, very flexible (client devices can be 
transparent bridges or NATting routers depending on what your customers 
need). This is all based on gear we've bought and used in the last six 
months or so; I can't speak to the "old" Tranzeo gear. No built-in 
bandwidth management, so you may need something else at your tower for 
that, but a Routerboard is cheap.

Also consider Motorola's Canopy gear (I haven't used it, but some folks 
swear by it).
