To work with Apple’s new 802.11ac MacBooks, Apple is releasing totally redesigned AirPort base stations.

Although the new AirPort is tiny, only 4-inches, it packs a lot of functionality, including 3-stream 802.11ac Wi-Fi, simultaneous dual-band, a beamforming antenna array and the option of either a 2TB or 3TB hard drive.

Price and release haven’t yet been announced, but these look like great updates.
