Yet another airport express question. I tried the search here and read the FAQ at apple and haven't found an answer yet...
In order to stream mp3's from my G4 (airport b card equipped) to my stereo (airport express equipped) do I need an airport extreme card or will my original airport card be fine?
Thanks

indicate that the slower cards will work, however in streaming music from a slower card, it is possible to have interuptions due to the slower stream.

From the people who I've indicated such, the feeling is that having everything operating on the faster card avoids the problem.
Well, aye hearrrrr you
