Apple updated its line of Time Capsule wireless routers on Tuesday, eliminating the baseline 1TB model. The higher end 2TB version has taken its place as the entry model and a new 3TB capacity has been introduced.
Retaining the previously established price points of $299 (2TB) and $499 (3TB), both versions of Time Capsule provide a nearly effortless wireless backup solution while simultaneously offering the robust networking functionality of an AirPort Extreme. Aside from increased hard drive capacities, no additional new features have been introduced with today’s update.
Curiously, Apple has also updated the store page for the AirPort Extreme even though no additional new features or enhancements seem to have been introduced. The “new” AirPort Extreme retains the price point of $179.
