External wireless hard drives

Maybe wireless is a bit slow for backups.
I've got a spare usb port on my bt home hub - that should do the trick shouldn't it ?

Those are for printers aren't they?

What you want is a NAS with cheap 'n cheerful ethernet through a wire (or four wires to be strictly accurate).

Anybody know of any decent wireless external hard drives around the 1Tb size ? I was looking at the Freecom 1Tb Datatank on dabs.com and seems to have good reviews. Seems to have gone up in price recently though .... that pesky pound again no doubt.
