It has two USB ports. There's no reason at all why they'd actively remove already programmed support for the LAN adapter from the OS when they put it on this hardware. I don't think the reporters were thinking about much more than the "missing wifi" reports. Yeah, missing Wifi is a bit of a mistake considering that these budget Wiis are likely to be living room bound and used as a set top box for Youtube, Netflix and Hulu. At least it has the LAN adapter option, but not many families will like finding out they need to buy an accessory for something like that as well as needing to string a cable across their house to the living room.
Well, either way it's interesting if only for the retro style alone. I'm sick of everything looking like an Apple product these days.
(Incidentally, I upgraded my avatar to Wii style. I finally found the font the Wii logo uses. A little late though... In a few weeks I'll likely upgrade it to Wii U style.)

"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
