The FreeBSD hardware support lists are not always particularly accurate. I own a wireless card and a sound card, neither of which is listed as being supported by the hardware list, but both listed by the drivers' man pages (and both work).
Actually that has changed with FreeBSD 5.3. Now (most of) the Hardware Notes are generated from the manual pages, so the Hardware Notes for FreeBSD 5.3 should be much more accurate then for previous releases.
For some applications encryption isn't enough. Note also that WEP is a commercial encryption system this means it is NOT secure enough for very serious military applications which is where technologies like this play a role by preventing leakage or blocking interference.
With all the known weaknesses of WEP I would say it's not secure enough for any serious use, that be military or commercial (and to some degree private).
I believe a petabyte is 1,000 GigaBytes, or 1,000,000 MegaBytes...
No, a Petabyte is 1024 Giga Bytes...

Argh, I was a litle to fast there.. it is of course 1024 TeraBytes, 1048576 GigaBytes or 1073741824 MegaBytes.

Besides, didn't the DMCA outlaw reverse-engineering?
Well since Søren is not a US citizen the DMCA can't really apply.
