AlienBees have their own wireless triggers now as well, claiming to have the reliability of the pocketwizards, yet costing 1/3rd the price with a range of 400 feet. as for such products like the radio poppers and alien bees, i'll be reserving my judgement until more reviews come out.
things to worry:
1) reliability (will it always fire in rain or shine, with a wall or building in between)
2) sync (will it always sync all e time?)
i'll be keeping my cash in the pocket till then
