You are assuming that they all have to go to the same Access Point and be on the same channel. For a high density setup you can get APs that allow you to turn down the signal strength so they can be more densly placed. With the Wisip or the Zytel you really need to go with g729 anyway for them to work properly at which point I think the footprint is only about 30kbps. I am not saying this will work, but I think it could be made to work with the correctly designed Wifi network. Point of fact we really don't know much about his setup since he just says "on one floor." The real question here is what is the necessary density per AP?
