    I was looking through amazon.com and found this. And the intresting feature is *Networking Wireless B B G N Adapters PCI 2.4GHz*. Will it mean this Intel Pro/Wireless 3945 will support MIMO when it's flashed with future firmware? Or do you think it's a mistake on Amazon?

    No it does not support MIMO and is unlikely to with a firmware update.

    Well, no. You'll still get extended range with wireless G, you just won't be able to use the new 802.11n technology when it comes out.
