Can both ethernet ports be used when extending or joining an existing network?

The only limitation I have with the current generation of Airport Express is the fact that I can only plug in one wired device when using it to extend or join a current network. If someone gets one of these and has an existing network, could you please find out if both ports are usable or if you need to buy an external hub to connect 2 wired devices to the network.

Will having a printer in the USB port of the AirPort Express allow me to print?

I have an HP printer that is not AirPrint capable. The printer does have wireless capability as I can print using my laptop PC but not my iPad or iPhone. If I hook it up to the USB port on the AirPort Express will I be able to print from my iPad or iPhones?

Connect my wd my book live nas drive to airport express

Im looking to purchase the airport express to extend my extremes wifi network. I hoping to put a western digital hardrive into the Ethernet slot on the express, as the express will be in the middle of the house enabling my office mac to share the content.

Hope that makes sense.

Existing wifi network - connection to speakers and sky boy

I have a wifi network in my house, powered by a wireless router next to my telephone socket.

In a totally different room, I have some ipod speakers and a sky box next to each other. The existing wifi signal is strong here.

What I want to do is:

1) Play music from iPhone iTunes over wifi to the existing speakers and
2) Connect my sky box to the internet via its Ethernet port.

Can I do this using a AirPort Express Base Station?
