I have both ral and rum devices here, and we're quite happy with
them.  In my experience at least they are quite reliable.  They are
rather inexpensive too, the USB versions can can usually be had for 50
euros or less, mini-PCIs even less.

Since you mention Intel parts, wpi in my Thinkpad R60 has a tendency
to almost, but not quite, resetting it self at apparently random
intervals, losing the link.  Nothing that can't be handled with a new
ifconfig up mumble plus dhclient mumble, and the recent revisions in
-current is noticeably better, but still a bit irritating.  I was at
the point of considering some minor surgery on the Thinkpad to put a
rum mini-pci in there instead, but the Damien Bergamini did some magic
which made the wpi behave a little better.
