My personal opinion Sound is mainly integrated on boards. Since developing a high end card is not an easy job, and the market is pretty small for that (enough competition), I think the wireless card is not too weird to do
Plus wireless is hot. What we can do is implement the standard and add a little extra once we are done with that, linux a nice encryption layer for linux to linux communication, thus giving linux (or a windowsbox with the right drivers), a nice edge.
