Very "unofficial" test done by me.
My wireless network consists of Linksys wireless G router w/speedbooster. I got the "g" adapter last saturday. Transferred a one hour show (1.6GB) in one hour.
Disconnected the adapter and took it to my brothers house. He has a linksys B router. With my "G" adaptor connected to his tivo it took almost twice the time to transfer a video.
Again, nothing concrete but I would say the combination of a totally "G" network would be well worth it if you do a fair amount of transferring.
If you only occasionally do it then I would think you could just start the transfer before you go to bed at night or maybe on your way out the door for work/store. Then it may not be warrented.
