I happen to agree with the general principle of waiting on "802.11n draft" equipment, but I do want to point out one contrary point. Certain companies (Apple being the most visable) started selling 802.11g draft equipment at least 6 months before 802.11g was given final approval. All of this equipment from reputable companies ended up working just fine with 802.11g approved equipment (in many cases after a firmware upgrade).

I would strongly speculate that "802.11n draft" equipment will end up working just fine with 802.11n approved equipment. The reason I'd wait on buying 802.11n equipment is that most people simply don't run any applications that need it.

Success Stories

I literally just came out of the testing centre having taken the CWDP exam. The certification process opened my mind to different techniques and solutions. This knowledge can only broaden your perspective. Great job, CWNP, you have a great thing going on here.

Working through the CWNP coursework and certifications helped not only to deepen my technical knowledge and understanding, but also it boosted my confidence. The hard work it took to earn my CWNE has been rewarding in so many ways.

I want to commend you and all at CWNP for having a great organization. You really 'raise the bar' on knowing Wi-Fi well. I have learned a ton of information that is helping my job experience and personal career goals, because of my CWAP/CWDP/CWSP studies. Kudos to all at CWNP.
