Turbo-charged wireless hacks threaten networks

The latest graphics cards have been used to break Wi-Fi encryption far quicker than was previously possible. Some security consultants are already suggesting the development blows Wi-Fi security out of the water and that corporations ought to apply tighter VPN controls, or abandon wireless networks altogether, in response.

So are appropriately chosen passwords still safe for WPA2 if it is brute force? It sounds like it. For now.
Whats a suitable password? Just something very long and using caps, numbers, special characters etc?
Although what those guys are suggesting is that its just a matter of time before any WPA2 password can be brute forced, is that correct?
