hello

there is a half-done intel wifi driver on Russ contrib dir, that may
be could be 'updated' to the new centrino chips (should be finished
first :) )

on the other hand, you could buy a card with a compatible chip
(orinoco) and plug it in the Wireless LAN Mini Express Port :), not
sure if that works, iirc that mini port was just a pci thing :-?
