    Anyone here done this? If so are the speed/range bumps noticeable?

    I have an n network but my a/b/g Airport card is shit and gets 20% signal where my wife's MacBook n gets 90%+. Even my Powerbook G4 g gets 75%+.

    I've got an N enabled MacBook that I use on N enabled Airport stations at work and home. Both are so much faster than the B/G enabled PowerBooks I've had in the past.

    At home (when it's just me using it) I get much faster upload/download speeds than before.

    At work, its also really fast, until someone joins not using an N enabled card - then my speed falls about 30%. This is still much faster than my older Powerbooks.

    I say go for it - I'm enjoying the speed bump a lot.
