How many do you think people would buy? It's not like the ABX is candy. I only bought one. I only wish Apple would have shipped it and the audio kit using the same shipping method. I get the ABX tomorrow and the audio kit sometime next week.

I bought two, one for each stereo in my house. The range extending features are just a bonus!

I ordered just the APX unit. I could not tell if the extra $39 audio thingy was needed or if that was for specialized audio setups. I assume that the APX unit does not come with any cords? And if I want to hook up speakers I just insert the headphone-size jack from my stand-alone computer speakers.

Do you have to have the extra $39 kit for hooking up to the back of a stereo?? Is it a radio-shack kind of purchase or do you need the Apple kit?

....another thing. It looks like the $39 also buys the "extension cord" I own a PB and two power adaptors with extension cords. I would assume that the extension cord fits on APX since it looks the same.

I tried to do the range extending and it dropped my signal to almost nothing. Now I'm just using it for AirTunes. I get 3 bars downstairs anyway.

I was going to buy 2, but since I have been puttin off going wireless until WPA became 'standard', I shall not be buying any - apparently with these things it's WEP or nothing.

I live in a 2 story house, my study is upstairs, and the stereo is downstairs.

There is no zero option!

I have to see one in person before I buy it.
