    Haven't seen any newer chipset expresscards lately, its slowly falling out of use.

    3x3 isn't going to help unless you use external antennas anyways, even finding a 2x2 with external connectors is hard.

    Most people are blissfully ignorant and happy with their cheap usb dongles because they still work for general use, so those of us that want more get stuck in a tiny under-served niche. At least there are still good minicards to get...

    I jumped on top of the ubiquity one when I found it cheap on ebay, but its been selling for at least double what I paid for almost 2 years now. (best one so far IMO, my go-to card for some directional fun)
