I figured I'd give you an update on this bug: I've installed a fresh copy of Ubuntu 9.04 beta on the Dell laptop where the wireless wasn't working. It seems that the issue is still not fixed. I must still blacklist bcm43xx, b43, rfkill_input, and mac80211, use ndiswrapper and insure that ndiswrapper is started before b44 by editing /etc/rc.local. There are two additional notes that may be of interest to you: 1) I did not have to blacklist b43-pci-bridge, as I did in 8.10 (and I never had to blacklist it before 8.10 either). 2) At some point (I can't remember when, I think it was around end of December), something prevent me from accessed any type of protected wireless network. This has been resolved in the 9.04 beta though.
