I would also point out that the BCM4359 is equivalent to the
CYW88359/CYW89359 chipset, which we are using in some of our
products. Note that this is a Cypress chipset (identifiable by the
Version: ... (... CY) tag in the version string). But the FW Konrad is
linking appears to be for a Broadcom chipset.
This just makes me think about Peter Robinsons seminar at
LPC last week...

should feel bad"

Thanks, this was a good read! I'm always interested about user and
downstream feedback, both good and bad :) But I didn't get the Stockholm
syndrome comment in the end, what does he mean with that?

BTW we have a wireless workshop in netdevconf 0x16, it would be great to
have there a this kind of session discussing user pain points:
