For a long time I was annoyed by having to input my routers WPA PSK passcode each time I booted. At minimum I would have to unlock the keyring containing the passcode, even after checking the button to automatically unlock it upon login. These issues are resolved in the new release of Ubuntu. The new version has definitely provided many upgrades to increase stability, and further polish this awesome Linux distribution.
Also regarding Broadcom wireless card support, ndiswrapper is no longer needed. The new B43 driver uses the well known fwcutter (firmware cutter) very effectively. The driver allows full speed data transmission that was typically only achievable using ndiswrapper. Now, right out of the box Ubuntu is fully compatible with Nvidia graphics cards, and basically all wireless cards. With each new release I see less reasons to stick with Windows
