What chipset does it use?

I know it's an Atheros chipset... But is it the 5002, 5004, or the 5005?

5001X+

http://atheros.com/pt/ar5001X+.html

can someone confirm this?

Support for draft IEEE 802.11e, f, and h standards

Is this the future?

BTW: Whats Super G?

802.11e will be the next wifi standard.

Super G

Is it? I haven't really been keeping up. Do you know what the specs will be? I'm assuming a 2.4GHz frequency, but what kind of bandwidth and range are we talking about? Also, if you're keeping up with these things, when will they roll out .16 (WAN) access?

Since it's late, and I'm tired, I just provide a link:
.11e and i (yeah, this one is coming too).

I have no idea about the .16 WAN.

As new wireless standards emerge, will it be likely we'll be able to upgrade our Wireless Mini PCI adapters in our ThinkPads to take advantage of the new technologies?

I think we will be able to do that. But only with expensive IBM Cards

(Thanks IBM for installing a hardwarelock in the bios

)
