would it be possible to also include b43-fwcutter (not only
bcm43xx-fwcutter) into factory? b43-fwcutter is needed for newer
firmwares / chips.

I'll add b43-fwcutter to factory soon.

Thanks for that :) Could you by the way attach some script for
downloading and extracting firmware? I mean something very similar to
install_bcm43xx_firmware
from bcm43xx-fwcutter package.

Link to firmware and command extracting it can be found on page
http://linuxwireless.org/en/users/Drivers/b43#firmwareinstallation

I think that new install_b43_firmware script should install firmware
for both: b43 and b43legacy. I belive that solution will be less
confusing for end users (we will avoid making to decide which driver
is needed for his device).
