I've noticed that.  I'm redoing my whole home network/testlab setup and am 
trying to compact a whole room of equipment down to as small as space as 
possible (have to give up my lab for a kids room) and neww to replace my 
current seperate routers, wireless, switches, servers with something simpler.  
I can't decide weather to just buy something like the WRT54G or just build a 
small server linux box which I can dump my laptop backup to and put in a 
wireless card and use it as a router also sort of an everything in one box 
solution so this thread caught my eye since I'm trying to decide on what 
might be a good router.
