How do I get presale questions answered?
I spent about an hour and a half calling Netgear today to try to get some basic presale questions answered about the difference between the RN314xx and RN104xx, but I just got a bunch of people who tried to read the contents of brochures to me and then ultimately hung up when I asked for more details.
I scoured the web-site and searched Google, but wasn't able to find any straightforward comparison of the two. Can anyone offer any suggestions on this?

The 314 has an Intel Atom CPU and 2GB RAM, and a HDMI port for possible future use.
The 104 has an ARM CPU, and 512MB RAM (which is soldered on).
The 314 has much better performance, is compatible with a larger range of apps and will cope better if you want to do a lot with it.
I would recommend the 314 over the 104. - The RN314 has much better performance . Of course the RN314 also costs more (about twice as much at Amazon US at the moment).
You can compare them yourself by looking at this two datasheets:

Do you have specific features you want to know more about?
