I'm pretty sure that will require an update to the AEBS.

I'm pretty sure that will require an update to the AEBS.
Users who've already installed say that this update does nothing for Time Machine over AEBS + attached drive. From what I've read, solipsism is right. Don't get your hopes up until you see an AEBS firmware update (and probably not even then).
I'd settle for a resolution to AEBS disks disappearing on computer sleep + wake. (Not in this update either, according to a few reports.)
Both Time Capsule and Airport Extreme have been updated to 7.3.1. I'm somewhat disappointed I can't use Time Capsule as my main base station.
