QTOPIA wifi setup for wpa2

[Jim Morris]

Ok reflashed the 888 qtopia (the update didn't take properly)

It doesn't crash anymore when I delete an internet profile.

However getting to the properties page for the selected wireless is not working as it says wlan 
pending, and there is no properties menu selection.
