By the time 802.11n gets widely adopted, it will be way too slow for our
application needs.  Everyone goes off about LTE solving world hunger, but in
general, theoretical licensed bandwidth is usually like 1/10 of theoretical
unlicensed bandwidth, so we'll always need STA devices that can support
both.

The 5 GHz spectrum is gonna be congested very soon, and we're gonna need
802.11ac and 802.11ad sooner than we realize.  2.4 is already gone in many
apartment type settings with little isolation, and soon they are really
going to push this "triple play" madness over 802.11n in order to save money
on deploying cabling,

More power to wires!
