So I don't know where that snuck in from. But yeah, its a three year old part that looks pretty sweet as it does 5Ghz, 2.4Ghz, and Bluetooth 4.1/EDR. Would certainly be a nice upgrade for the pine64 wifi with the speced 867 Mbps data rate (which it would naturally only achieve in the lab under ideal conditions. Maybe worth considering as a 5Ghz wifi option?
That's my point - 5GHz WiFi is becoming more widespread, and the limited 150Mbps is becoming slow enough that soon it can't even stream 1080p videos, not to mention 4K...
Its all 5 ghz (and beyond...) moving forward from a wifi standards perspective; 2.4 is, essentially, at end of life, b/g/n and thats it.
