Yes, I did try it but wasn't able to get it to work at all. Anyone else able to make it work?

I also have FC5 installed on a older Dell laptop with a Linksys WPC54G card (also a bcm43xx chipset) and there I can get the bcm43xx OS driver working with a little bit of fiddling. I'm also on the bcm43xx list and it looks like the issues with that are being resolved in an upcoming update. There seems to be an issue with how the Fedora startup scripts initialize the card. Apparently you need to get the ESSID set first so the card has a chance to associate with a AP before it will let you do anything else.

ships with FC5?  I'm not sure what all you have to do to make it work
(like, if you need a binary firmware, etc).
