Apple Introduces Wireless Base Station

Another Apple product that slipped under the media radar is the Apple Airport Extreme Router!

Following the media frenzy of the iPhone and Apple T, the Airport Extreme is not an average wireless router as it offers up to twice the range and up to five times the speed of the average wireless router because it uses the 802.11 draft-n standard, which is the next generation in wireless technology.

Yet forgetting the technical talk, it is the styling of the Airport Extreme that will catch the attention of the consumer, it is crafted in the now familiar white finish and measures only six and half inches square and just under one and half inches high.

Around the back of the unit there are USB ports, which is not that spectacular as many units have a number of USB ports now days, however when you consider the fact that this unit can create a network of Mac’s, PC’s and even a wireless printing then this unit has a lot to offer.

It is most defiantly not just for Apple fans, though naturally as with all Apple products there is a ready market out there just waiting to spend the $180 sometime in February when the product goes on sale.
