Unless you were naive enough to buy the X220 with the "Thinkpad b/g/n"[1] wireless option. Then, grief, anger, acceptance/resignation (in the form of a USB wireless stick[2]).

There is a host of other issues, but nothing that can't be worked around after hours of researching blog posts and manuals. More kernel panics on suspend (related to the aforementioned USB wireless), external monitor issues, USB 3 port disappearing ... You know, small stuff.
