I've had ours for 6 weeks or so, and I love it as well. Set up was easy. I wasn't sure about the connections on the rear of the unit, so I called an Apple store and asked if they'd look at one and tell me which was the ethernet port.
We have a printer connected wirelessly. My plan is to connect an external hard drive to that USB port. I also like the airport utility. It is nice to be able to read the status of the unit.
