Looks like Cradlepoint and Clearwire are teaming up with a new product named the Roverpuck portable Wi-Fi Hotspot for 4G. Rover Puck 4G device is designed to work exclusively with the Rover 4G Service.

According to the quickstart guide:

 "With your Rover Puck, you've got Unlimited 4G internet that rolls wih you.  Puck around town with your friends and connect up to eight laptops or Wi-Fi devices to your personal hight speed, wireless hotspot.  You and your friends can stream media together, check in at your favorite social networks, game online or simply cruise the web."

Cellynx 5Barz inventor/CEO resigns


According to a letter filed with the SEC, Daniel Ash has resigned from the Cellynx Group, Inc. The letter states that he was first removed from the position of CEO and later removed from the board.

wpsantennas.com staff tested the 5Barz Cellynx product and was not impressed. The unit carries a hefty retail price of $299 in addition to a small profit margin for resellers. In testing the signal bars increased however data speeds were actually slower compared to using the unit with no amplification at all.

Wilson Electronics released in early 2010 the model 815226 Sleek ($99 Retail) that outperforms the 5Barz unit.

Reading through the information provided to the SEC, Cellynx has spent Millions of dollars on one single product that we feel will not survive in this competitive market.

 wpsantennas.com coming soon is the new Wilson Electronics 75 dB DB Pro Adjustable Gain Smart Technology In-Building Dual Band Cellular Signal Booster model 801280

The DB Pro Adjustable Gain 75 dB Repeater is the first truly adjustable gain unit from Wilson Electronics.

Gain adjustments between 45 and 70 dB on 1900 MHz and between 40 and 65 dB on 850 Mhz. 

The unit has only one input and one output for the donor and exterior antennas.

We are not sure yet if 50 or 75 OHm coax is going to be used on this system as the specification sheet lists SMA for the antenna connectors (50 Ohm) yet the antennas listed are 75 OHm.  wpsantennas.com will update this release as soon as we have more information.
