I have been trying OS X on and off for a while. But I never got my Broadcom wifi going. I did get detected as airport thingy etc etc. The only problem: i wouldnt work, the led wouldnt even turn on.

But I am also a Linux users and I know you need this: http://www.informatik.hu-berlin.de/~tauber/acerhk/ to get it going in Linux. An other option for this: http://www.archernar.co.uk/acer_acpi/acer_acpi_main.html

These tools are like a replacement tool for what the Launch Manager from Acer does in Windows XP.

Unfortunately I am not much of a developer and I wouldnt be able to port the AcerHK util to Mac. Still I felt like I should let you ppl in on these thought.

What do you guys think?

Yes it does work, I have a broadcom wireless card in my Acer Ferrari 3200LMi and it works but you also have to modify the file NetworkInterfaces.plist to activate it. Otherwise you will have an airport icon with all options grayed out.

I have Acer Aspire 3022, and I have same trouble than Jaccoh.
LED did not flash, could not find any wireles network, and if I write network's name and key OSX crash.

This is my NetworkInterfaces.plist:

<plist version="1.0">

Could you post your NetworkInterfaces.plist ?

Maybe Ferrari is different than Aspire...
