Future Routers Exhibition Drags Routers Into the Open Comments

My Belkin N1 Vision is pretty much my desk clock. It uses internet time as well so is always "correct" similar an atomic remote clock. (bizarrely this router was the cheapest I could see at the time that had wireless n *and* gigabit ethernet!)

What a fantastic idea !! I've been looking for a smart / stylish router/access point for ages. I hope these will come out soon. It makes a lot of sense to leave them out on display for better performance, but without looking like an eyesore.

I've got the Belkin N1 - yes it looks stylish, but with 3 pointy things sticking out, it still looks like a router.

I've also got the Linksys ones - the ones that have no pointy things sticking out, but it still looks like a router.

Hopefully my search will be over soon .....

Nice ideas! Apart from the cabling, which as usual with pictures of any domestic electronic product don't appear in promotional pictures :-) .

@Mikey_uk well if Routers go in the direction of those linked in the article, then cables may well go the way of these: http://www.trustedreviews.com/home-cinema/news/2009/01/09/CES-2009--Cables--What-Cables-/p1

Nice effect those keys are going to have on signal!

Apparently the design team didn't have an engineer on hand!
