Great to hear all the background machinations. As an end user, I just want a fix. Pronto.

Regarding whether the driver is actually fixed. I observe two things with the 2.6.33 kernel code.

1) I can only connect at "G" 54 mbs speeds. My card has and is capable of "N" 135 mbs speeds.
2) I am observing random disconnects after a period of time (number of minutes, or hours?). Don't know yet, more testing required.

So, we still have a ways to go to actually resolve this.

At this point and wasting a ton of time, it looks like I might have to wipe and reinstall a stock Ubuntu 10.04 gold and ignore all kernel updates until this actually gets a real fix!
