The upcoming Aiport Extreme will integrate a way to share a USB hard drive through the wireless network.

Is there any possibility to do the same with the Airport Express ? Any rumored upgrade or something ?

Thanks

It's possible to share a USB hard drive that is mounted on another computer on your network. You have to have file sharing enabled and log into your other machine to access the disk. I do it now with my airport express. Only problem is every time you restart your machine you have to sign on every time to get to it.
