PTP550 new link for commercial customer--is it ready?

We have an 8 mile shot that we'd like to use this device to provide 100Mbps full duplex. I was just reading some problems, and was curious if anyone can say the platform is stable enough to use.

We don't use PPPoE, we do usually use management VLANs, but it isn't a must. The wireless environment is unknown, but I think these radios would perform fine, just curious of their overall stability for this project.

Is there a certain fw that would be better for me, knowing I think we'll need to be using bonding?

I was reading the post here, and I think we can make these radios work in our environment (though it'd be nice to have 10MHz widths). I was more curious of the platform stability with this question, rather than the TP characteristics:  http://community.cambiumnetworks.com/t5/Sub-6-GHz/Reg-New-link-suggestion/m-p/96258#M2436
