I was asking about a single radio AP (could be dual-band, operating at 2.4 or 5 GHz), not a dual-radio AP. I think your approach extracts the best performance, but perhaps there are many more who want a separate overlay operating at 5 GHz, eventually migrating away and turning down the 2.4 GHz

Good point, though those legacy client devices seem to stick around longer than you think. In any case, shipping chipsets will be predominately 802.11n by 2009 and my guess is that the installed base of clients will reach 50% that year. I think Kevin's 5 to 8 years is much too conservative.
