Oh yeah, some more features I forgot to mention:

The Minitar supports WDS mode (AP+Repeater mode), client mode, 256bit AES
WEP, TKIP key exchange, 802.1x/EAP with RADIUS, MAC access control, and DHCP
Server.

It has 1MB Flash memory, 8MB SDRAM.
It has a 12V 0.5A power adapter, so presumably doesn't consume more than 6W.

One disadvantage I can see is that it's only specified for operating
at between 10 and 40degrees, which might not suit the Australian outdoors
much.

But all in all, the Minitars go well above and beyond the call of duty for
a $90 wireless AP.
