It must now be 5 or 6 weeks since I started my lets say more or less ‘inofficial’ project and a real run through a lot of new stuff. 

Being interested in it since a while I wanted to figure out about whether or not I really would like it. Not going the risk to waste a lot of money by directly buying some real one and later finding out about there is no way for me to deal with it.

Quickly being sure I indeed like it, since two weeks now I own an original shiny one …. just playing with my ‘playground’ was still an issue. :-/

Last two days now I found myself sitting about some .kext files with a hex-editor trying to patch them getting the wireless device up and running on my clone baby.

Not being sure about how many older settled users ever tried to modify some kernel extentions themself, I’m sure everyone will get it is no easy doing for sure. Stepping back looking at things, I really do now think it is time to give up finally.

I’m no hacker and from the beginning from me is was intended as a non serious basis only used for getting familiar with it. Without the original sources and deeper knowledge about far more technical specifications there is not any chance to get it up and working within some reasonable time for me.

Nevertheless is was and still is a great adventure for me gettng familiar with. Just now I will dump the clone and use the original to make some money by using it seriously for work!
