Netgear has these neat little USB micro wireless network adapters[1]

Said devices are really nice for those of us without supported
integrated wireless chipsets, such as those found in late 2010 MacBooks,
or anything manufactured by Dell recently...
The only problem is that the device itself is not supported.
The device appears to have a RealTek RTL8188CUS chipset (vendor 0846,
device 9041), which, without knowing much more about the device, I
suspect could work with the urtw(4) driver. However, my feeble attempts
at simulating support for the device ended, well, as expected. :)
OpenBSD has a urtwn driver. No idea whether anyone is working on a
port.
