BTW, have you seen this one :
http://www.alibaba.com/product-gs/815002442/RT5350_wifi_module_oem.html

Looks even more interesting to me, as it seem to be better described.
This company haowever have not been so responsive in my case, still
waiting on some contacts.

I can see that they go up to 64MB RAM, but I do not trust these
Alibaba adds too much...
