Is it fair to ask the question what percentage of these units sold will be used by hackers and what percentage will be used by bona fide “security researchers”?

Don't know anything about this product but I did watch the video. I could tell right away, these are very dangerous people--just look how they're dressed!

Since there are always questions that come up about what are the use-cases and applications of this thing. Here are a few more:
- Z-Wave security and penetration testing (Z-wave is used in smarthome automation and also newer home security systems like the Ring Security system). Z-Wave works in the 800-900 MHz bands. - SimpliSafe security and penetration testing (another very popular wireless security system that uses wireless motion sensors and magnetic door sensors). SimpliSafe works on 433 MHz (to basestation) and 315 MHz (from base station). - Security and pentetration testing of Zigbee (used in lots of applications including IOT, wireless sensor networks, industrial control, smarthome automation, etc). Zigbee works on 2.4 GHz (not covered in this product) but also works in the 800-900 MHz band which this product covers.
And shocker, many of these systems have known vulnerabilities. For those looking to get into security research, this would be a great first product, as it's much cheaper than the HackRF. There are likely more flaws to be discovered. The companies state these products are "safe" and "secure" but the burden of proof has already been laid at their feet.

One of the things I hate about the DIY Tech scene is how there is a wide range of products that look interesting, yet the people that make these things never show any practical examples of what you can do with the device. All you ever get is a screenshot, a vague description and some specs. It would really help if these products had videos showing off some of the cool things that you can do if you purchase the device.

RegusThe hobbyist community does that for them at no expense in the natural course of the hobby itself, but companies tend to want to control their marketing materials. Linking to the 'blog pages and such where those hobby projects are documented and discussed would tend to make that difficult.

So to be clear, this does NOT come with the ANT500 antenna? Looks like the hak shop includes it for $130, and the antenna usually runs about $30, so this is like $10 off? Ok sure, I've been wanting to get one anyway lol
