Airport Express... AP + music streaming

What a damn cool innovation... bundle an access point targetted at home users with the ability to stream any audio format from iTunes across your wired or wireless network. I could definitely see using this when travelling to set up an ad-hoc wireless network in conference rooms, hotel rooms, etc, aside from the streaming capability.

I can also use this to give my network-enabled PS2 a permanent 'net connection, instead of having to use my PowerBook or Denise's iBook to share its Airport link to the world when I want to play online games from the PS2. Cool!

Enjoy your iTunes music library in virtually any room of your house. Share a single broadband Internet connection and USB printer without inconvenient and obtrusive cables. Create an instant wireless network on the go. Extend the range of your current wireless network. How many devices do you need to do all this? Just one.
