OfficeMax.com has the D-Link Wireless N Router DIR-615 on sale for $50 with free shipping if you add a filler item. It supports a draft 802.11n standard, which may become obsolete if it isn't compatible with the eventual approved standard. A flash upgrade might alleviate that problem. [BizRate]

    An early implementation of N they are obviously trying to clear out of inventory. Changes to N have been minor, so I wouldn't worry about incompatibility, but the performance of this unit isn't up to par with later N routers. Firmware won't fix that.

    Really TheKitty? A lower model number is inferior to a higher model number? Can this same logic be applied to other goods?

    Dlink - I hope they have a firmware update! Dropping issues are common on most of the draft-n routers coming out now

    There's a firmware update for this router. Using one right now, and have had no problems with it at all.

    This is about $10 more then Ben had it earlier this week from Target.
