No, I suppose I should take a look to see if the ported wireless drivers include my chip and try it on the laptop. Only tried it in Virtualbox so far.
If you have spare thumbdrive kicking around, "Haiku on a Stick" is a good way to try Haiku on real hardware (even though the name makes it sound like a Jimmy Dean product):

I think it's only Qt apps that have been ported, rather than KDE apps. My understanding is that Qt is designed to be cross-platform and has no real dependence on X.
Have you tried Qt on Haiku yet? I believe the port is still just an Alpha, but the Qt apps I've tried already integrate quite well in terms of look-and-feel. I'd be hard-pressed to distinguish between a native Haiku app and a Qt app running on Haiku.
