PLT devices

[Iain McFadyen]

Yes I think that is the case here: Plenty of testing in a Lab environment, and 100+ trial customers. The combination of devices, state of wiring, size of homes, and a plethora of other variables mean that every scenario cannot be accurately tested in a lab. 


The set top boxes have an 802.11b/g/n option, and I believe that this is the direction to be used for deployment.
