Hello all you people,

We are evaluating these things down here- primarily as timers. Issues we are bumping into:

-does it work with steadystate? Does it replace it?
-where does it get the patron list from, or does it even use one?
-how much staff babysitting does it require?
-cost, of course, but some libs are planning to use Gates $ for it, so...
-ease of install/administration and user friendliness
