I'm wiring up my new home so that I have a network connection in every room. I was wondering if Cat 6 would be good to get, or should I wait for Cat 6e? I know it wont matter now, but I'm hoping to set up for the future.

If you do say wait, how long do you think I will have to?

CAT 5e is good for Gigabyte speeds.
