I'm trying to hunt down a USB AR7010+AR9287 combo, which I think is
the only 2-stream ath9k_htc combo (whose firmware is open sourced by
open-ath9k-htc-firmware).   I found on the linux-wireless wiki device
list that the TL-WN821Nv3 was of this combo.  I gambled and bought a
TL-WN821N on Amazon, but it ended up being a v4 with the ralink
chipset.

Is there any other card out there still sold with the AR7010+AR9287
combo that might not be listed on the wiki page?

Thanks a bunch.

- George

Not much hits, but it lists some other devices:

Thanks for the responses! This is helpful. Many of them don't seem to
be easily available in the US.  It looks like my two best bets are the
Sony UWA-BR100, albeit a bit expensive at $60.  The other option seems
to be hunting down a TL-WN821N v3 on eBay.  There are many TL-WN821N
listed, it might be a matter of finding someone with some v3 models.
Many of the other cards from that wiki seem to be more available in
the UK (e.g., WNDA3200 and WLM-20U2).  The Xbox 360 adapters, despite
being AR7010+AR9280 have some sort of custom firmware and are
therefore not supported by ath9k_htc.  I found that out first hand,
and someone put it on the wiki:
http://wikidevi.com/wiki/Microsoft_Xbox_360_Wireless_N_Networking_Adapter

If anyone out there has any other suggestions for easily available
AR7010+AR9280/7 cards in the US, definitely point me in that
direction.  I'll try to see if I can hunt down some TL-WN821Nv3

Thanks!
George

My personal advise, get WNDA3200 if you can. I purchased 3 of them from 
UK. This adapter has soldered UART and was really cheap - about 10€ with 
delivery.

Here is my modified WNDA3200
