They're using a third party card with the Apple driver (no idea why but
another reason I take this "threat" with a grain of salt).
Turning WiFi and BT off when they're not being used is smart if only to save
battery.
The threat level on this one is very low. I have more chance of being mugged
in a convent while carrying my PowerBook than being hacked in this way.
But then again it's after midnight here and my sarcasm gland is acting up...
