To make an agonizing saga short and sweet, I just bought a new AirPort Express Base Station that I don't really need, but I'm wondering whether I'll derive an unexpected benefit from its 802.11n technology.
The specs say 2x the range which I don't really need, because my airport card is never more than three feet from my Base Station, but they also say 5x the performance.
From what I've read, that seems to apply only to data transfer and not to AirTunes (which I can't imagine any way to enhance). Is that correct, i.e. that I'll actually derive zero benefit from moving up to 802.11n?
(PS: I bought the new one from the Apple Refurb Store...$69 + tax...far and away the best price, and Apple gives you a one year warrantee which, if I'm not mistaken, is the same as a new product warrantee.)
