Useless in what sense ? I use a broadcom bcm4306 miniPCI card with Kismet. Works fine, although not as sensitive as the Atheros. Actually both the Atheros and the BCM is better with kismet than the orinoco is, since they are faster to change channels. Same goes with a Prism54 chipset based card. Only reason to keep the Orinocco, is for NS and the few old WiFi linux tools that only support the Orinocco.
