The only acer's that work wirelessly are those with an Atheros 5005 wireless chip.

 

All other Acer owners (like me) are stuck at this time. No driver or software hack is known to work. Even replacing the wireless card to a broadcom doesn't work (tried it).

 

So, certainly buyer beware and need to try to find out more info on that invilink

Walmart online store has this for $448 with no shipping cost if you pick it up at your local

Walmart.

One question though, the WLAN is listed as Acer Invilink, anybody know if this will work

with OS X ?

 

So far, the 2682's ethernet and wifi aren't working. Using USB wifi at the moment. Circuit City has been running different rebate deals on this model over the last 3 or 4 weeks dropping it well below the price you listed.

 

Looks like we are all awaiting the way for osx86 to recognize the mini pci express bus to get built-in wifi. Other than those issues, seems it works fairly well for the price point.
