First announced during CES, D-Link has began shipping its all-in-one router, the Xtreme N DIR-685. Specs for the router go a little something like 802.11n, WAP, and support for BitTorrent downloads. On the side of the router is a slot for an optional 1TB, 2.5-inch SATA drive. On the front, the DIR-685 features a 3.2-inch screen for video and photo streaming and can also display device status. The D-Link Xtreme N DIR-685 is available now for a price of $300.
With the release of Linksys WRT160NL, no longer will you need to hack your router and load a linux firmware on it, due to that fact it’s powered by Linux. The new router has a 400MHz processor, 32MB RAM, 8MB flash memory, two external antennas, and 802.11n. And being a media sharing router, you can stream media through the USB port to UPnP devices. You can pick one up now for $109.99.
Being a powerful arm of its business, HP hardly fails to impress with its printers and the HP Photosmart Premium with Touchsmart Web is no exception. Being the “world’s first web-connected printer,” the Photosmart Premium will feature a 4.33 inch front panel touchscreen display, Touchsmart Web, and a slew of apps to help you print maps, tickets, coupons, recipes, and more without the need of a computer. HP will also include an HP Apps Studio with an open API to encourage developers to create apps for its printer. Aside from being able to print, the Photosmart Premium will also provide fax, copy and scan functionality. Also, being a wireless printer you’ll be able to print directly from your iPhone, iPod Touch, WiFi enabled PCs, and Bluetooth enabled devices. With all these features the Photosmart Premium is fairly priced at $399.
