Thank you, but please allow our engineering and logistic teams do their work without community intervention.
We will specify when a choice is made.

When you test the wireless card that you choose, can you verify that it will run in access point / master mode under linux (preferably linux open source drivers)?

Thanks!

I was under the impression the Realtek RTL8111 did not work under Ubuntu 8.04 or 8.10 -- Am I mistaken? (or perhaps, has Ubuntu fixed this issue?)

Just to follow up the post - have you decided which wireless card to use yet?
I really hope it supports access point/master mode!
