I'm trying to decide between two airport express(es) or one airport extreme.

My belkin craptastic $19 router isn't cutting it anymore, managing a paltry 24% signal strength two rooms away and frequently going dead (different channel then other visible networks, no cordless devices in my home). In my other home I'm using a pair of airport express routers (one on the first and one on the second floor) which allow for every system in the house to maintain a fantastic connection, however the same setup also buys the new airport express which I'm aware has three antennas inside. Granted I won't be using the draft N standard, what's everyone's opinion? Tried and true twosome of airport express(es) or a single airport extreme.

Thanks!

Go for the extreme, the expresses have a high failure rate and don't have the features of the extreme. You can always add an express later.
