Also, some issues with Intel, too:

I know that this has been at least somewhat addressed, but I'm not sure if
they are fully addressed.

Hard-earned knowledge:
Meru's single-channel approach has some compatability issues with
certain drivers, most notably Lenovo laptops with the Atheros chipset.
If you decide to go that route, make sure you have a USB key lying
around with the latest drivers from the Lenovo site for the T60's
wireless network.
Regardless of your deployment, make sure your front line support staff
(you DO have a helptable, right?) has the ability to update drivers on
PCs without requiring wireless connectivity.  An ethernet cable should
work just fine :)
