Just *don't ever* use the Thinkvantage access connections wireless
drivers. They fail after standby, needing a reboot. Twice now I've had
them bork so badly, the entire IP stack (including wired) has locked
up.
Which is a shame, cos the Thinkpad hardware is damn fine. I'm really
pleased with my X61, and it has great battery life too.
