Linking two buildings 12km apart with Motorola Canopy

I recently attended a wireless seminar put on by Motorola showcasing their new Canopy hardware. I have a client requiring a directly link between two buildings in the city. One building is 19 stories and the other is 22 stories. They are 12 km apart and the line of sight from the roof are perfect. I am wondering if anyone has had experience installing this product. It would be my first time doing such an installation and i'm curious if anyone has had success.
