Everyone in your family can surf the web wire-free because AirPort Express provides simultaneous wireless Internet access via your DSL or cable modem for up to 10 computers. Just like its big brother, AirPort Extreme, AirPort Express uses the 802.11g wireless standard to deliver blazing data rates - up to 54 Mbps. It supports both Macs equipped with an AirPort Extreme Card and Wi-Fi-compliant 802.11g Windows PCs, as well as Macs with the older AirPort Card and 802.11b Windows PCs. Have several computers in your home but only one printer? No problem. Just connect a printer to the USB port on the AirPort Express Base Station and the printer instantly becomes available to everyone on your wireless network.AirPort Express with AirTunes brings your iTunes music in your Mac or PC into your living room - or wherever in your home you have a stereo or a set of powered speakers.

I just got my Airport Express (AX), for a seemingly high $119 (education price, $129 normally); but it's important to understand what the Airport Express can do.

I totally didn't understand what this thing was all about when I first read about it but I reluctantly agreed (per my husbands suggestion) to get one and I'm so glad I did.  We don't have cable but the kids can watch all kinds of cable kid show podcasts for something new and fresh when they're...
