That article is over a year old and I believe not entirely relavent. My
understanding from subsequent postings was that they'd decided that an
all in one card had too many hurdles to easily overcome and had broken
it up into two separate cards.
Hopefully it isn't vaporware as I'd really like to have a usb card. The 
other aspects would be nice but don't really matter to me.
