Can I use the EX8000 and the EX7700 with the XR500 at the same time?

I have the XRM570 (the XR500 with EX7700 extender) and am wondering if I can also have the EX8000 connected at the same time as the EX7700. I have read several reviews that say that this isn't possible and that only one extender can be connected at a time. I am wanting to have the effect of cable throughout my house without actually running cable and this seems like the best option with my current setup. I don't want to spend $200 just to find out it won't work and then go throug the hassle of having to return it.

    If the reviews say it doesn't work then it probably doesn't, would probably be better to use an AP in addition to this and see if you can connect the extender to that.
