AirPort Express vs AirPort Extreme

[Rhobes]

Whats the difference between them?

I recently bought AudioEngine A5 Speakers for my new iMac & to stream iTunes/Radio they recommend using "Express". In the near future I would also like to link the laptop and old iMac to the internet, I assume I will need one of these AirPort devices...😕

The Express is smaller has an Audio Jack and is really just a wlan router

The extreme is a full router with more then 3 ethernet port, wan port and has no audio jack.

The express does work with printers but not with external storage devices

the extreme does both

Also, a search in these forums (or better yet MRoogle) will yield multiple threads comparing the two.
