Likes
Near-wired throughput that accommodates streaming media and VoIP phone calls, very good range, some interoperability with other draft-n equipment, possible upgradeability to final 802.11n standard.
Dislikes
Immature standard and immature product, requires purchase of matching adapters for maximum performance, questionable interoperability with other draft-n products, lacks Gigabit Ethernet switch, no USB adapter.
Good for
Heavy users of wireless streaming media, networked hard drives, VoIP phones and the like who want to maximize performance and gamble that these early draft-n routers will be upgradeable to the final standard.
Bad for
Anyone who doesn't need to buy a new router right now. They would be better off waiting for the standard to mature.
