I have both wireless and wired set up, but I never unplug because my laptop sits in the same spot all the time, and transferring "data" to my X-Box is way faster over 100mbit.Perhaps 802.11n will be fast enough for this type of job, if only it is affordable too...

The reality is that new technologies take years to fully develop and market. Here we are in March 2009 and the 802.11n standard has now been pushed back for ratification to 2010. The wireless equipment resellers of AIR802 equipment, www.air802.com completely prefer stable and powerful 802.11b/g devices that actually perform well. The least powerful wireless 801.11b/g router at 250mW of RF power output beats any draft 802.11n product with 50mW of power any day hands down. Also certifing a product that the standards haven't been agreed upon really doesn't help anyone much.
