The b43 team has come up with the specs but hasn't yet coded the driver to support that one.
In the meantime check out www.myehud.com/mini9. It includes links on building wl from source, and patching it for 2.6.28 / 2.6.29 as appropriate. The from-source version is a TAD more reliable than the pure-binary that Ubuntu Intrepid (8.10) ships with.
