  I had an Australian vendor sell me a IPW2915 with the GEO code for 
what I think was China. Ended up with only 4 A channels, and guess what 
the local AP was set to.

  Managed to get it swapped for one with the right GEO code, but in the 
process we discovered the distributer had 100's of these cards with the 
wrong region. Dunno how many they sold to people who haven't noticed 
most of their 'A' channels are missing.

  I assume said distributer was 'grey market' importing and bought their 
cards directly in Asia somewhere. In theory end users are not supposed 
to be replacing their radios anyway, doing so invalidates the type 
approvial for the laptop in Australia.
