802.11i times

I worked on the standard.

There are not a lot of differences between WPA and 802.11i.

Any hardware that works with WPA will work with 802.11i.

The spec has been stable for almost a year. Changes were cleaning up the text.

A lot of vendors should have code out quickly, as will MS (for XP and Win2000).

WPA was never supported under W2K, without third party software. Hopefully this will change with 802.11i, but I wouldn't count on it.

Not completely true. Microsoft released WPA Pre-Shared key support for W2K last February.
