Laptops needs NM badly.. Linux have it, Opensolaris have it... I cannot use FreeBSD 8.0 in my laptops (8 persons in my company) because there is no NM. All the Laptops runs Arch linux... it is a good OS but does not compares to FBSD. That is a thing that is missing... I agree that wpa supplicat is great... so if one can only make a GUI for it... it would make all of us happy too....
