Oh, that could be cool (assuming that any of the dynamic DNS services use Bonjour). I'd imagine that anytime your dynamic IP address changed, the new AE would update your dynamic DNS record. Yay. No more having to run a background service on my mini for this.

Now you have the AE do you have any other info on this?

I haven't played around with it much. Here is the screen that I think deals with it, along with the help page for that screen.

Thanks. I have reread the manual and I think it might be too much of a security risk for me.

Looks like the place to enter your Dynamic DNS info. Create a free dyndns.org account and try it out. I'll buy one of these if this works.

May want to compare to what Dell's doing on something very similar:

http://direct2dell.com/one2one/default.aspx

Free Motherboard upgrades on their XPS700 series.

Some of the important quotes:
"The current version of the XPS 700 BIOS added Windows XP 64 support and enabled Intel’s Virtualization Technology (VT). "

These are all supposedly new features which didn't come with the computer, nor were advertised. Furthermore:

"After applying the BIOS update, your XPS 700 will support the following features:

* NVIDIA SLI-Ready (Enhanced Performance Profile) Memory
* BIOS overclocking for the Extreme processors (Reminder: overclocking can cause system instability and reduce operating life)
* RAID 5
* RAID 1 + 0"

All of which are new features, all for free, including the motherboard exchange, not due to defect, of course.

It is because of a fustercluck in some law this is happening. Apple uses common sense. The government does not. Full stop.
