This should not be rejected since this is real problem.  I am using
BCM4306 under 6.10 with firmware method and it works.  I download the
firmware package from http://ubuntu.cafuego.net/pool/edgy-
cafuego/bcm43xx/bcm43xx-firmware_1.3-1ubuntu2_all.deb.  This method is
not the most stable but I am trying to avoid ndiswrapper solution.  This
firmware package does not work under feisty.

Under 7.04 2.6.20-13, I tried the Ubuntu repos and got nowhere.  I first
install bcm43xx-fwcutter (from feisty repo) and then it prompted for
firmware (which I installed).  I got nothing from network-manager with
this solution and it does not even show anything from dmesg.   The
firmware is under /lib/firmware just like 6.10

lshw -class network shows this for wireless device.
