I've purchased several of these to convert older machines with no wireless and these work great and have great range.
The range on it is so so, but i get good enough signal with it.
The unit is nice and small, but it seems to be capable of receiving my wireless modem signal wherever i put it.
Price
Great price and works well with linux.
Update: i didn't actually return it as the effort to return it was more than the cost of the antenna.
Packaging/appearance
The box says that the antenna is 3x stronger than a built-in antenna.
Competitiveness
While i verify the claim for increased range, i am happy to get the higher speed, which is basically 3x as fast as the g protocol.
Later, i switched to a buffalo router and was eventually able to get 150mbps speed and it's consistently at that speed.
