Todd Dominey does a review of Apple’s Airport Express gadget and include two gotchas that Apple forgot to mention:

  • You must have a wireless card to setup Airport Express
  • Extending range requires 802.11.g

One thing he notes that is greatly mentioned that many others have also clamored for is a remote control for the unit. I am sure in time you will see this with Apple as numerous people have requested it and it will lead them one step closer to conquering the digital home.

Overall:

All that said, I still think Apple has one hell of a product on their hands. It’s very competitively priced to other 802.11g routers, with the added benefit of AirTunes and USB printer sharing. I ‘ve been waiting years for Apple (or someone) to elegantly bridge the wireless void between my Mac and existing home stereo, and in that capacity (though limited and one-way) it works as advertised.
