Wooo hooo!! If this actually works I'm going to be so happy!
All I need is for customs to clear my stuff and I'll have my network running (seriously excited about this as I was looking down the barrel of a Time Capsule - but can now spend the money on something else.... Mmmm gadgets!)

Hmmm, I might buy this instead of a Time Capsule, just so I can whack on a smaller drive and save some cash.
But the all-in-oneness of the Time Capsule is alluring...

Save even more by picking up AEBS(n) from one of the reseller clearance lists. About a month ago a non Gigabit ethernet one was $149 and gigabit ethernet was $179.

I think this update has persuaded me to invest in a Airport Extreme over a Time Capsule, but as decryption stated, the all-in-oneness of a Time Capsule is quite nice

I'm still tempted as hell to get a 1tb Time Capsule - stick an additional HD to it and you are not going to run out of backup space for a wee while.
