I thought I stumbled across it digging through Apple's Tech Specs. Good to know. And yes, it could still stand a $100 price cut across the configuration lineup! That would make it almost irresistible. @Jaron: You could probably eBay it for a decent price, still, and pick up a new Gig E one. @John: Wow, I must have totally overlooked the Mini ethernet bump back when it happened.

I use 3 as home file/media servers, and couldn't without gigabit. I am disappointed/annoyed that the AirPort Extreme was revved to include gigabit Ethernet. Having just bought one, and having a network infrastructure at home that is entirely gigabit (plus N-capable laptops), that really bugs me. I need to drop another $179 for a gigE capable one. Colin,
