[Arm-netbook] origen 4 (exynos S5PV310)

[krasi gichev]

Yes, my point was that having dual band WIFI might indicate something about
the WIFI chip. Usually we get b/g/n, usually Realtek ones. SmartQ are using
complete TI ref design and they use TI's WiLink for WIFI/BT/FM combo.
I hoped to find one which particular WIFI chip is inside those tablet.
But anyway, thank you, your note about AMPE quality and support might
trigger my quriosity to get one of those for experiments.
