Fwiw, I would if I could.  I've got a couple mini-PCI Intel radios
sitting here that I would like to be able to use in various single
board computers (e.g. soekris and netgear wgt634u).  Right now, I am
mostly constrained to using Atheros radios, which is a situation I'd
rather not be in and have been looking forward to growing out of.
