I've been debating about getting a wireless solution for my apartment for a while now, but given that Amazon can get me hooked up with an 802.11g setup for about $200.00 that will let me use my laptop in the living room, I think that it's time I spent the cash.

It is also good to see that the price of 802.11g products is dropping, I wonder if this is a side effect of Apple's new Airport hitting the market?

Linksys 802.11g wireless router on sale at Amazon.

Currently the number one selling item on Amazon is the new 802.11g wireless router from Linksys, which is on sale for just $133.99. 802.11g, as you may recall, is five times faster than 802.11b (54 versus 11Mbps) but is still backwards compatible with its slower cousin.
