There is a Shield + Gateway coming out soon , the Lora Alliance will use it as a dev kit. In the summer we'll have a MKR format board. SigFox is good becaue it can deliver now on a lot of use cases

A couple years ago, for a RHoK event, we imagined a network of seismic/motion sensors using cellphone brains on top of poles that could be dropped from planes and penetrate enough in the soil to remain steady and signal land movements before landslides.

This could be a really cool way of deploying (or dropping) a network with a mesh backbone.

Massimo, at what price range an capabilities are you aiming your gateway, since it's currently quite expensive - 200euro + for a multi channel model.
