Hi,
We're about to develop such a product. We hope to finish it by the end of this 
summer. But this is absolutely not guaranteed ;) Anyway, we're operating at 
an IF of 70MHz with a BW of 20MHz that can be chosen from the ISM-band 
(2.4-2.483GHz). We're really eager to have this BEFORE Q4. But then again...
 If you have any questions about this, don't hesitate to ask.

Linus
