It seems, the "Lenovo Thinkpad R61i Wide" does have the Atheros Chip, but I
will try to check it tomorrow (friday), since I need a customized Version...

The current price is now 1082 Euro

Tech-Notes:

Intel Core 2 Duo T5250 1.5 GHz
15"4 WXGA+ 1650x1050		<= 2nd most important for me
1024 MB DDR2 667
120 GB SATA
256MB nVidia Quatro NVS140M
DVD+-RW
Biometric Sensor
W-LAN				<= Realy important if a/b/g
GBit LAN
Modem				<= 3rd most important
3x USB2
Bluetooth			<= I hate it
Windows Fiasco Business		<= I get the TP without it

What I need and what I do not like in plus:

   1) Most powerfull standard Akku
   2) DVD replaced by a UltraBay Akku

I need an autonomie of at least 10 hours!!!

Thanks, Greetings and nice Day
