Wow, I've must have been pretty drunk back then ;-) Well,
this driver looks to be a mod of the irport driver which I 
once wrote, but I haven't written this one, so I should not 
have been tagged as the author. Sources should probably say: Based
on irport.c by Dag Brattli or something.

I don't have access to an iPAQ, and it's hard enough to write
drivers when you _have_ the hardware ;-) But I'll have the
iPAQ in mind the next time I'm allowed to buy a new gadget ;-)
