I'm in love with a router
I know that sounds kind of creepy, especially since routers aren't usually very loveable; however, this ASUS WL-700gE is really cool.
In addition to being a wireless router, it also has a built in 160GB HDD (with USB ports for additional storage), a built-in iTunes client, a built-in BitTorrent client, FTP server, web server and UPnP support for digital media adapters. Best of all, it is only $250.
This may have to be my Christmas gift to myself. I would love to move all of my media files (at least all of my music) to the router. I guess I could also pull a couple of my 300GB drives from my media center PC and attach those directly to the ASUS.
Here are more details.
