Essentially the new OS board will enable you to change wifi radio bands between 2.4 and 5 gigahertz...

Hopefully it will do a bit more than that though?
It seems a bit of a damp squib if it's just static configuration option. I assumed it meant that the board would dynamically use both wireless bands to provide multiple redundant routes for streaming (analogous to how the Phantoms can use Ethernet, wireless or power-line networks). But I admit I'm reading a lot into what Guillaume reported.
I agree, a little flexibility on wifi settings isn't much to write home about! I assume there is much more to come though, given Mathieu's language when describing this.
