More CES gaming goodies

Here are a few more game-specific CES 2007 happenings:

Linksys announces a draft-N router for gamers:

I think this is the first N-spec gaming router (I really expected DLink to update their GamerLounge line), and it sounds impressive, but CNET does have this caveat:

"It's a familiar song, so if you know it, sing along with us: while we've seen fast throughput from the draft N routers, they don't live up to the much-hyped theoretical speeds of the N spec, not even close. If you have to have the fastest gear now, it's likely that most of the currently available draft N products can be made compliant with the final spec with a simple firmware upgrade, so go for it. If you don't want to take that risk or pay through the nose (this router costs about $200), be patient and wait to see if the final spec results in better performance."
"Orb MyCast: Stream to your Wii":
"Orb is a program that turns computers into streaming media servers, so users can access their movies and music through any compatible web browser [like the Nintendo Wii version of Opera]."
