Product Description
Now with blazing 802.11n, the affordable AirPort Express is powerful enough to run a home Wi-Fi network, yet small enough to take on the road. Share your wireless network with up to 10 users, print documents, photos, and more from any room in the house to one central printer, play iTunes music through your stereo or powered speakers using AirTunes, and more.

 With PC, fails the ease of setup standard August 27, 2008
Gauteng (VA, United States)
I am here at 11 pm looking for validation and possible insight into why the Airport Express doesn't want to set up. I am using a Dell laptop with Windows XP SP2 and a built in 802.11b card. Apple is starting to look more and more like Microsoft in the 90's - pushy updaters,endless product tie ins and now flaky installations. As others have noted, the manual is nearly worthless. Disappointed in DC.
Just what I needed, times 3 August 25, 2008

I use three of these boxes. I turned off the wifi on my ISP-provided router. I wired one of these boxes to the router and created a wireless-N network. Plug in a set of good computer speakers and suddenly I have a great wifi signal and iTunes music in the bedroom. The second box extends the wifi signal in the living room and is hooked to the stereo. Presto, iTunes in there, too. The last box provides the same benefits in the kitchen. Toss in Apple Remote on my iPhone and you have much of the functionality of a Sonos whole-house audio system at a fraction of the cost.
 Wow! I had no idea it could do this! August 20, 2008

I was looking to extend our wireless network (w/Time Machine as the base). As part of doing that, I discovered that this little unit can actually stream music to my nearby stereo, using my iPhone (or Macbook Pro) as the remote control! It took less than 10 minutes to extend my network AND get music (and Podcats) playing perfectly on our Onkyo receiver. The Airport Express shows up on my iPhone (using the free Remote application from Apple), and as a destination option from iTunes itself. I can even control the volume from the iPhone or iTunes. If I add another one of these puppies, I can have music in multiple rooms. Good to see that Apple really does put thought into their products. Good luck to Dell in theirs to play catch-up...
Airport Express is the right name for this product August 14, 2008
Ken Graham (Ontario, Canada)
Having read some of the negative comments about this device, I was a bit doubtful of it but, went ahead and bought one regardless. Like so much of what goes with a Mac it works well ...like it's supposed to, and it was a breeze to install.
The only bump in the road was connecting a Vista based PC which, through some electronic hiccup, only connects to the LAN occasionally. Because the Mac is my main 'puter, the Vista PC connection problem is no big deal; besides, what else is new with Windoze?
The Airport Express is a good investment and one that I'm happy I made.
Great product with limitations August 12, 2008
V. PATEL (Philadelphia)
I bought this product because I hated attaching additional cables to my laptop to play music. However, as you will easily notice, it's only for itunes. I found this limiting so i download AirFoil which unleashes the Airport Express and lets you source music from any type of source (System, Application, Etc). Windows I'm not sure...I'm a mac user. Outside of the listed above reasons...it's a great product and works as stated!
