Thanks, guys.
I'm not ready to run -CURRENT on my laptop, so I'll manage without WPA.

BTW, are there any good guides to getting set up all the little bits and
pieces that make up a good, working mobile environment on a laptop?
(installation isn't a problem, it is covered in detail all over the web)
So far I have thought about these things:
- getting suspend and / or hibernate working (and for the ThinkPad,
   the list archives should do nicely)
- getting roaming (and wired / wireless switching) working (profile.sh
   perhaps?)
- getting power / battery management working (est / estctrl?)

Are there any other pieces that will help?
