Folks, I was offline yesterday so didn't see this thread until this morning. I cannot sit on my hands and not answer this libelous statement about Redline.
Here are the facts: - the company is very well backed by a group of blue chip private equity investors including Matrix, USVP and GF Equity - the chairman and founder, is one of richest families in Canada, is heavily invested (largest investors in the company) and highly committed - we have $5M+ cash in the bank and have raised another $10M as announced during our last investor conference call - we had a cash flow positive Q1 and have around $20M in working capital Kevin Redline Communications Inc.

Not comforting at all. Aperto is my first choice now because I believe they use TR-069. But I wanted to see if anyone had used Airspan's Macromax product.
