Or , where should I go if I want it? Given Marvell's disinterest in Linux support for older 88w83xx chipsets, I doubt you'll be able to get it for free, let alone under NDA. Your best bet, if you're desperate for Linux support, is to port over the old vendor driver to mac80211 as Dan pointed out. Otherwise, NDISwrapper might be your friend. Or you could do what I did when faced with a similar card, make my other options (a rt2500pci based card) work.
