It’s a Monday and AirPort Express now does 802.11n
Posted by Aayush Arya
Surprise, surprise! Apple just launched an updated AirPort Express, bumping the wireless capabilities of the mobile base station to the spiffier and faster 802.11n. It still looks exactly the same as its previous avatar and is available for the same price of $99.
Apple claims that the pint-sized WiFi access point is now five times faster and covers twice as much area. Apart from the upgrade of the wireless networking standard though, the rest of it is exactly the same as it used to be an hour ago.
This is hardly out of the blue and I have to say that I’m pretty miffed by Apple’s antics here. They clearly went out of their way to prove my prophesy wrong and released it today, instead of tomorrow as we would usually expect them to. Ah well, one down, one more to go (they’re not going to be proving that one wrong any time soon).
