Market availability in 2006
Lighter devices than competition
Cost
Market availability in 2007
Aesthetics of devices
Ease of serviceability/deployment
 
 
How important are the following product characteristics to your customers in the selection of new hardware products?
Not Important Somewhat Unimportant Neutral Somewhat Important Extremely Important
Ease of Installation
Device supports both 4.9 and 2.4 GHz
Aesthetics of device

In conversations with my customers this issue is brought up frequently.

Strongly Agree Agree Neutral Disagree Strongly Disagree
A smaller/lighter device is important to my customers
A smaller/lighter device would provide a significant competitive advantage
Customers would pay a premium for a smaller/lighter solution
Delaying market delivery is acceptable to obtain a smaller/lighter solution
 
 
 

Assume R2.0 combined 4.9/2.4GHz access point is 30lbs without mounting hardware or antennas. To make a smaller/lighter device solution delivery could be:
1Q07 2Q07 3Q07 Time to market is more important than optimizing sixe/weight.
 
 

If size/weight is optimized the latest acceptible delivery would be:
1Q07 2Q07 3Q07 Must be deliverd 4Q06 regardless of size/weight
 
 

Strongly Agree Agree Neutral Disagree Strongly Disagree
Reliability is important to my customers
My customers would accept active fans as a cooling mechanism to obtain a lighter weight device
My customers would accept a plastic housing to obtain a lighter weight device
