I see.  Ok that helps.  So maybe it can be something like this.

Shared Medium     # of users 

802.11a               15 per AP

802.11b               20-25 total per AP

802.11g               20-25 total per AP

802.11n               25 per Radio so possible for 50 total per AP

Doesnt that just further support a possible increase in clients per radio?

Depends on the traffic.

I mean, if the clients are just pushing emails, HTML, FB, etc ... I would turn-the-other-way and bump the number up from 25 clients to 35. 

It doesn't matter if you're using 802.11 a/b/g OR n.  It all boils down to what kind of traffic and how "sustained" the traffic is from the clients to the WAP.

This is also just data...voice will have a limit on call capacity also. Currently they suggest 14 simultaneous calls on the 2.4ghz and 20 on the 5ghz. I still like to keep the numbers low but maybe that's just me.
