Well, I have a dell latitude with a bcm43xx pccard shoved into it and was a fairly happy bunny except that while on the road recently I finally noticed that stuff works well only when the power cable is plugged in during network address acquisition. i.e. NetworkManager works perfectly well with the bcm34xx (for WEP at least) when plugged into the wall. On the other hand the laptop locks (with NetworkManager, or manually during dhclient) when operating on battery only, but ejecting the card unsticks it :-).
