It sucks waiting for drivers, buy maybe David can grab a cheap
802.11b pcmcia card in the meantime.
The wireless field is changing so fast that it makes little sense
to have wireless built in. I refuse to buy any laptop with
built in wireless unless it is dirt cheap, and has an mechanical
shut-off switch.
802.16 is just around the corner, and all the centrino stuff
is going to be deadwood then.
