During the recent WWDC keynote Scott Forstall was talking about iOS 5 going "PC free" and households without PCs. Even with the features he mentioned there are some things that would still need to be done with a PC. One of those things is setting up an airport. I think having airport utility built into iOS would help them in that goal. An iOS device could directly interface with an airports USB port using the connector cable. What do you guys think?

[UPDATE] Never mind, dekadent has provided a link to the feature being included in iOS 5. Thanks dekadent.

I didn't see the post. Am I not allowed to miss any information? I might have noticed it eventually anyway. Also it's not currently built into the version of iOS most people are using right now.
