    Good basic stick

    Involvement:Expert (understands the inner workings) - Ownership:1 day to 1 week

    Pros:
    Works out of the box on Linux. Sufficiently low power consumption that can be powered through a Raspberry Pi Model B, later revision without USB polyfuses. (Caveat: not sure if it works in all radio conditions, conceivable that with a worse signal it'd requ...
    Cons:
    Apparently no Access Point mode in current Linux drivers at least. Not critical for most uses. For laptop use it's a bit large.
