Question Status of RAAS.

Does anyone have the real story on Honeywells' RAAS, Runway Advisory and Alerting System? Which airlines are actually using it? It seems the web-site claims need to be read with a pinch of salt. For example, from Honeywell, "FedEx is installing RAAS across the fleet". Yet, from an AEEC Conference -

FEDEX – We had it and we removed it. We discovered on the airplanes that there was interference in getting clearance messages and getting the on runway message. Until that is resolved, it is not in our aircraft.
