Is there a difference between the two? I am considering getting the Express as I don't need the additional ethernet ports. It's $80 bucks cheaper and I love the tiny size. My only concern is that it may have a weaker radio, giving my devices crappy reception.

So, is there a difference in performance between the latest AirPort Extreme and Express base station? Let me know!

Thanks!
 
I went ahead and bought both. Tested them. Concluded there is no difference on signal strength. I recommend the express for the people that don't need 4 Gbit ports and use wireless. The express is incredibly small compared to a time machine.
