Sputnik is offering a dual-radio AP designed to work as a bridge repeater: Sputnik offers software that lets hotspot operators remotely manage hotspots. The new AP will let operators extend the range of their hotspots to cover larger areas. Sputnik also appears to be targeting the municipal market, arguing that its solution would be less expensive than today's mesh offerings. However, I wouldn't think that the Sputnik offering would be quite as flexible as the mesh deployments which allow for multiple hops enabling coverage to areas that are very hard to backhaul.
