Just got this and will be trying it out on an upcoming trip. Looks well made and comes with a semi-hard travel case and a flat, roll-up Ethernet cable.

About the only disadvantage from what I can tell is that it can't connect to an encrypted WiFi connection for the purposes of establishing a wired connection to a machine. This is not a scenario that I personally need.

Minor nit: Since I always have an Ethernet cable in each of the two bags I carry my laptop bag in, I don't need the roll-up Ethernet cable. But, if I leave it out, there's empty room in the travel case, which could possibly lead to it being crushed.

UPDATE: I'm very happy with it. It even subbed in my house when I had to send in my "big" router for a warranty exchange. That did expose another disadvantage -- range is a bit weak, probably because it has a small, internal antenna. The laptop card may matter too. A current card had no problem connecting at 60 feet away, while an older A/B card was unable to connect at 30 feet with just one wall in the way (both cards were internal to the laptops).

Quoted: The Linksys Wireless-G Travel Router with SpeedBooster lets you carry a wireless network wherever you go. There's a built-in access point, which lets you connect SpeedBooster-enhanced and regular Wireless-G and Wireless-B devices to the network. There's also an Ethernet port to connect your wired PC. The Router function ties it together and lets your PCs share a wired or wireless Internet connection.

The travel-friendly form factor includes a built-in power supply and antenna--it even comes with a travel case! Create a temporary, personal, wireless access "bubble" in your hotel room. Just plug the Router directly into the wall, and connect the hotel's fast Internet service cable. You can also create a shared-access bubble attached to a wireless Internet connection to use multiple devices on a single hotspot account in a coffee shop or airport lounge.

To protect your data and privacy, the Wireless-G Broadband Router can encode all wireless transmissions with WEP or extra-strength WPA Personal encryption. The Router can serve as a DHCP Server, has a powerful SPI firewall to protect your PCs against intruders and most known Internet attacks, and supports VPN pass-through. Configuration is a snap with the web browser-based configuration utility.

Just got one of these. It appears well made. Folds up nicely. When unfolded, the cord is about a foot long. They also have 3- and 6-outlet models. For some odd reason, it is $5 more in white than in black. Go figure.

Forbes listing of the top 10 steak places in the world. Includes one of my favorites -- Jess & Jim's in Kansas City. The tables have red and white checkered tablecloths, the waitresses call you honey, and the steaks are sensational. You can even order them extra rare if you want (I settle for rare). I've had the Playboy Strip the article refers to twice -- and finished it once. It's about 3 inches thick -- charred on the outside, perfectly rare on the inside.

Whether it’s Peter Luger’s legendary succulent porterhouse dripping in natural juices and butter or Doe’s Eat Place four-pound sirloin, steakhouse cuisine is unparalleled in its simplicity.
