The one coming out this year is supposed to be even better. The Axentra Net-Box One just took Best of Show (in the Smart Home category) at CES. I'm not a Mac or an Axentra owner. My interest is in smart home integration. I think the more intersting announcement to come out of the Axentra camp was that it is going to make a software package out of the suite of apps that runs on the Net-Box. You'll be able to run the software on the Mac Mini (oh, and yes there will be a PC version too).

The Net-Box wasn’t a recommendation, just a notice. I don’t know, a router and access point are about 100.00 each give or take a few bucks.

Take a look at these <a href="http://www.microcenter.com/search_results_e.phtml?coordinate_group=D5E2" rel="nofollow">networked hard drives</a>; granted that they don't include integrated router/firewall/access point, but that doesn't justify a $200 price premium.
