The DSWD-v1 and -v2 have been revealed!

Have a USB wireless w/o an external antenna that you wanna use for a longer range, semi-stationary wireless link? Our precision designed parabolic dish kit should be on the market soon for under $12 (using ur USB stick). A complete kit that includes a 200mw high power USB stick, the DSWD-v2 parabolic and USB extension is expected to hit the market for under $39.
