Amazon has the new Linksys Compact Wireless-G Broadband Router for a low $66.99 with free shipping.<br /><br />The Linksys compact wireless-G broadband router is an all-in-one Internet-sharing router, four-port switch, and 54 Mbps wireless-G access point. Almost five times faster than 802.11b, it can also interoperate with any 802.11b device (at 11 Mbps). The Linksys compact wireless-G broadband router is really three devices in one small box. There's the wireless access point, which lets you connect both screamingly fast wireless-G (802.11g at 54 Mbps) and wireless-B (802.11b at 11 Mbps) devices to yout network. There's also a built-in four-port full-duplex 10/100 switch to connect your wired-Ethernet devices together.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B0007MGG2M/ref=nosim/101081219797-20" target="_blank">Linksys Compact Wireless-G Broadband Router - $66.99 Shipped - Amazon.com</a><br /><br /><b>Discuss the deal in this thread.</b>

I believe the hardware is different from the current models. However, it does uses a linux based firmware as in previous models. I think the source is posted on the Linksys site, so it is only a matter of time before the "enhanced" firmwares start to show up.
