Wi-Fi Planet and eWeek both published reviews of Wi-Spy 2.4x with Chanalyzer 3.0 today. The eWeek review says "Wireless administrators looking to get their feet wet with SA in the 2.4GHz band—either to perform simple or sporadic spot checks or as a technology pilot before investing in larger-scale solutions such as AirDefense Enterprise—should check out MetaGeek’s affordable Chanalyzer and Wi-Spy 2.4x combination pack.

The Wi-Fi Planet review takes an in-depth look at the recording abilities of Chanalyzer. "In our time with the Wi-Spy, we let Chanalyzer run for about six hours,
and upon viewing the data were easily able to discern a variety of problem areas, including nearby access points occupying the same channel and a 2.4 GHz wireless mouse that was causing periodic interference.”

“Those looking to employ something more than blind guesswork when it comes to identifying potential wireless networking problems will appreciate the capabilities of MetaGeek’s Wi-Fi 2.4x, a spectrum analyzer that can help you discern how well—or poorly—your wireless signals actually fare in the air. Anyone that needs to keep a 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi network in crowded environs will want to check out the Wi-Spy 2.4x.”
