if it was my choice i would go for option 1 because its really cheap its cheapers than netgears 270 n let alone netgears 300 n which is the speed of linksys's one

I would go with Linksys just because they are typically(but not always...) the best. Maybe look around for reviews on the two and see which most people prefer.

I would also like to add that Wireless "N" isn't really a true standard yet. You seem to get that idea going with the same brand cards and routers, but I'd still stay away from it a bit longer. Unless they really need the added bandwidth(doing local networking stuff) the added speed is rather worthless as you are basically limited to around 10Mbps online.
