 There are some commercially availabel 900 Mhz Zigbee products.

Downside #1:  900 Mhz Zigbess does *NOT* offer 250 Kbps data rate, 40 
Kbps, IIRC.

Downside #2:  NO, 900 Mhz Zigbee does not offer any more range

Downside #3:  900 Mhz Zigbee is considered an abomination by most Zigbee 
users, and the Zigbee Alliance barely evenb acknowledges its existence.

   There are *NO* apparent afvantages top choosing 900 Mhz Zigbee.

Oh, Downside #4:  900 Mhz Zigbess is only approved for use in the USA, IIUC.
