Exactly what chips are inside?

Any binary blobs?  Binary blob device drivers are non-starters. Binary blob
firmware (e.g. in a wireless chip), can be handled if necessary if the code
is available to the community (as is the case with ath9k).

When we can get some (if they are interesting)?

When will their code base be available?
