No, my ThinkPad doesn't *do* N, 5GHz or otherwise. Neither does my Sprint
EVO, nor, as near as I can tell, the Galaxy S4 I'm going to replace it
with this year (though on that one, I'm a tad less certain).
I'd forgotten that N was dual band, though, yes. I can't say I've ever
needed the extra bandwidth N provides, personally, though certainly the
hotels we've been discussing might need more to share around.
