I confirm this issue. I saw it since mid-December and again with Lucid Live CD of January 6 2010.
I have a HP Compaq nx8220 with the very same network hardware:
Network controller: Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 2200BG [Calexico2] Network Connection (rev 05)
I stopped NetworkManager and started it manually with --no-daemon. What I saw (see attachment) makes me think it might be a driver problem, but more likely some dependency problem network-manager -> libc.
