So I'm starting to feel like I'm coming off like a zealot and I don't like it, but I will make another opinion on it. I think small business is a driving factor, they typically produce really good stuff at a good price point. With that said I haven't seen anything really new out of Linksys, Netgear, etc... in a long time. Did you look at the specs and price point for the router I through up? Its $80 and it literally has every feature known to man for a SoHo type user (the only obvious thing its missing is RADIUS). It even has 2 wireless channels that are isolated by default so you don't have to put guests on your network. 

I think I'm sounding like a zealot and that's making me feel a little dirty...
