AirportExpress: Cables/ Faster Wireless?
I am planning to buy an AirportExpress so I can stream music to my stereo. I am trying to figure out if I have to buy the AirportExpress Stereo Connection Kit. I already have the 7' Monster mini-duel RCA cable for connecting an iPod to a stereo. I suspect they are the same cable , Does anyone know?
Also, is Apple coming with a faster wireless system soon? I thought read about Super AirportExtreme or something like that? I getting a new PM this June. If there is a good chance that it my have a faster airport extreme card, I would wait a month for the faster Airport Express. I guess the same question goes for a wireless iSight: any one heard anything?
Thanks,
bobo

That make alot of sense to me. Thanks! I just thought I read something about it somewhere. I also see wireless "spy" type cameras advertised, but they must not require iSight type bandwith and quality.

well, apple reps at the chicago tiger party were walking around the sidewalks chatting on isights. i mean, this isn't anything new--is this what you're talking about?

No, a wireless iSight: like a bluetooth/802.11g connection from the iSight to the computer.
