New Drivers for Wireless 1500 Draft 802.11n - Dell says it's "urgent"?

Thread Starter 
So I'm sitting and not writing my essay/studying for my multiple midterms, and I'm wondering why wireless seems so slow on my laptop - E1705 w/ 1500 Draft N (I've noticed this before, never really done too much about it). Anyways, I go to Dell's support website to look for a driver update, and I see this:

Release Title: Network: Dell _Wireless (US) WLAN Card, Wireless 1350 WLAN MiniPCI Card, Wireless 1350 WLAN PC Card, Wireless 1370 WLAN MiniPCI Card, Wireless 1390 WLAN ExpressCard, Wireless 1390 WLAN MiniCard, Wireless 1450 WLAN miniPCI Card, Wireless 1470 Dual-Band WLAN miniPCI Card, Wireless 1490 Dual-Band WLAN MiniCard, Wireless 1500 Draft 802.11n WLAN mini Card, Driver, Windows XP, Windows XP x64, Multi Language, Multi System, v.4.100.15.5 / 4.100.15.8, A10
Release Date: 11/15/2006
Criticality: Urgent
Description: Download this driver if you reside in the US. This release supports the Dell Wireless 1350, 1370, 1450,1390, 1490, 1500 series, and Dell TrueMobile 1300, 1400 series Mini Card, MiniPCI and PC Card devices (not USB).

Is there any reason this is urgent? Has anybody seen this yet? Will it make a difference? Just wondering.

It has the fix for the security issue that was announced by broadcom last week.

This thread was half a year old. Make a new thread instead of trying to hijack one that has been dead for a long time.
