  It is very interesting question, why D-Link release simple PCI WiFi adapter on this chipset (DWL-G520M). I've looked at it because it is MIMO-capable -- I have very difficult configuration of walls in one place, and I've thought, that replacing simple DWL-G520 with DWL-G520M will help...
  I don't need SoC-features and I read about them on Atheros site only after your message...
  As far, as I understand this SoC was created for home entertiment/media devices, not for WiFi adapters for PC...
