WHO CARES?!?!!

Last time I checked most ISPs were offering speeds slowing than 802.11b

Most folks use wireless simply to share internet access between workstations... So this speed boost is really quite useless.

I use my wireless network to sream movies and music to my big screen in the living room. The extra bandwidth would be very useful especially when playing DVD movies and HD content.

You might not care, but...

The extra speed is nice for people who move files between their computers and don't want to have their Internet access performance impacted.

You don't seem to understand what a LAN is and the need/want for more speed internally.

108mbit or 120...not that big of a difference...a big difference would be 11mbit to 120mbit...(120mbit is the actual speed of the new router)

Except the wirelessness that claims 108Mbps is more like 50.

that's exactly what I'm planning to do BUT I will not get this router, instead I will wait for finalized 802.11n and burn my d-link di624!
