Oh well =P If they work the way I think they do, having a router with a USB port would also be useful, especially for older printers that couldn't be connected to the router any other way. For that matter, if the router's USB port could be used for devices <em>other</em> than printers, it could prove to be <em>very</em> useful... ...<strong>especially</strong> if the device is an external hard drive: that way, if certain files need to be available for sharing (and editing), it wouldn't require taking the drive back and forth between computers <em>or</em> leaving any particular computer on all the time. Thank you, Antony =)

Congratulations on HP Jetdirect thing. My main printer (Epson AcuLaser C1100N) is connected to my network router (Time Capsule) by network cable, which makes printing from my main computer, laptop and Laurent laptop very easy. I am very happy that I bought the printer with networking. Many routers have built-in USB port of connecting to printers. Happy belated birthday.
