I got a few of them, and flashed them with dd-wrt. While the FON AP's are nice and small, they are quite slow (slow to boot up, may be processor?), and the dd-wrt firmware for the FON is quite buggy. However it is actively being developed, and is becoming more stable every day.
I too would suggest getting one, in hopes that the FON version of dd-wrt is as good as the wrt54g version someday.
