ummm, what about all the stuff you didn't mention?

Perdedor: they did fix the kernel panic problems with the latest beta. I can sleep-swap my WaveLAN Silver card with no problem whatsoever on my Ti.

The "double install" bug still exists, though. The first install seems to be successful but then the "en1" setting won't appear in the System Prefs. After a second (or sometimes third) install, it'll just "take"... most users on the driver mailing list have no trouble after that.

Apple's Airport utilities do not work with 3rd party cards in X, and neither do some Airport-specific utilities like MacStumbler. Supposedly one can use NetStumbler or other unix variants of 802.11b utilities if necessary. But for day to day internet access, the wireless driver is a lifesaver and it works fantastically well.
