That would tag on another $20 at least on the price and that is if the card worked with all routers.

That's not true at all, you are thinking too much in terms of simply using pc equipment. It would be entirely possible to have wireless system links that don't require a wireless router at all. Handheld games are doing it quite well. Granted the bigger consoles would have to send more data than a handheld, but I don't think its too far fetched.
You guys are acting like I said it was fact or something, hell I didn't even say it was probable. I merely said it would be pretty sweet, if you'd like to argue that point then by all means go ahead. Now that I think of it, it would be pretty damn cool if the Xbox 360 could make me a sandwich too, but I don't expect to see it either.
When it comes to price I don't think 20 bucks is an issue here. There have been talks of the system (fully loaded) costing up to $500. If I'm paying that much for a system is 20 bucks going to make a difference? Nope. I can't see anybody saying "I would pay 500 for a xbox, but its just way over priced at 520."
