Good router?

[paul at pauldotcom.com (Paul Asadoorian)]

Hey Chris,

Not certain what your budget is, but I've been playing around with
non-consumer grade stuff lately.  Its more expensive ($200-$300 /
router), but works so much better (++flash/RAM, ability to choose your
wifi chipset, etc...).  Check out:

The RouterStation looks awesome as well, ships with OpenWrt, w00t!  I've
done some routerboard532 hackings, its a great platform.

Anyone else tinkering with any of the above gear?

Cheers,
Paul
