Everyone.

I have to agree with Brad here.  Wifi has other uses too!

I'm sure I'm not the only one who wants/needs the Neo/Freerunner to connect
to some private networks over Wifi.  I don't want to have to go through my
telco's network and back through my internet connection just to reach my
network.  Also, doing it that way would mean that I absolutely need some
sort of VPN solution on top of the communications channel at all times.  I
don't necessarily want a data plan just to use the device on my own network.
I *NEED* Wifi.   A bonus would be to switch to a Wifi chipset that allows
promisc and other similar uses.

For me, removing Wifi from the device would be a deal breaker.
