Isn't about time now for native support of more wireless cards?

Installed 64bit 12.04 and realized that there is still not any native support for my Netgear card. I have been waiting since 9. I love Kubuntu but this is one of those things that for me that makes or breaks it (the other being my TV tuner card) and I am tired of having to run 32bit Kubuntu on a 64bit machine because I have to use ndiswrapper and the 64bit driver that I have will not work. oh yeah the card is a WN-311T if anyone knows of a way to make it work besides ndiswrapper. Also if anyone has gotten the Avermedia TVHD DUET card to work I would be forever greatful as well. Thank you.
