One other thing you might look at:
http://www.scd.ucar.edu/nets/projects/wireless/performance.tests.html
 
Basically the above link shows that the Cisco Aeronet card does not
have any performance penalty for crypto.  Might be interesting.
Since your earlier message, I've started using a Cisco card at home
along with my Lucent.  I don't have any definite opinions yet. :-)
 
I'm seriously thinking about the D-link "broadband wireless gateway"
with 3 10/100 switch ports.  Basically a ethernet/ethernet router 
with ethernet/wireless bridging.  About $352 from buy.com.
