Wireless seems to be a pretty integral part of Centrino.  Certainly
anybody who is buying it (based on Intel's marketing) will be buying it
with the expectation of wireless working.  Not suggesting that it won't
be working as quickly as possible, just that calling wireless on
Centrino an "extra" is probably not entirely valid.
