It's as FullMAC as it can get. It's the same Prism chipset, just
connected to the host system in a different way. I don't think it's
doing anything differently on the wireless side.
Sure enough, there are some knobs to dumb it down, but probably not to
the SoftMAC level. I don't think it was tried, and I don't think it's
worth trying.
