Default Wireless Access Point recommendations?

I work for a company that installs wireless networks in small offices/home offices. We are currently looking at switching our AP offerings to one or two decent SOHO-grade (read as less than $120 retail) wireless access points. They must connect reliably with PDAs.

We are currently looking at the following:

D-Link DWL-2100AP
Linksys WAP54G
Netgear WPN802 (too pricey)
Buffalo WHR-HP-G54 (combo-unit, which doesn't fit our support model)

Have we missed any other good offerings? There seems to be a lot of comparison pages from 2003 - 2005, but nothing really recent.

I've only really tried d-link and linksys gear, but none of the models out of your list. I've had more problems with d-link and the support has been worse, so I'd be leaning towards the linksys myself.

I think anything wifi will connect to PDA's as long as the PDA's have wifi enabled.

Hi,

I strongly recommend using ZyXEL G-2000 plus, very reliable with decent coverage and within your budget.
