Re: All this for what?

because all of the people who are really security conscious went out and bought 802.11g devices when they were released, now that there is something "new" and "more secure" looks like they have to spend that money all over again. It's all about the $$$

I totally agree. But a lot of corporations, especially big ones, like to imagine that stronger encryption will protect them significantly more. If it gives them a higher comfort level, they are likely to adopt 802.11 more readily. Of course, they will probably find out that other security holes are more important anyway.
