... As a security professional, this would be an almost (needs a usb to rj45 adpater too) ideal tool for security audits.
We have a working USB Ethernet solution (here's the wiki). You can even buy all the parts at one place.

The N8x0, even with a battery-powered USB hub and an external USB WiFi dongle, is still a lot smaller and lighter than a laptop (and A LOT cheaper, too, if you buy the N800 at its usual $235 price range). I have found that some velcro tape (from my local dollar store) is a great way to stick all the components together in a little bundle when you need to carry them around, and when you don't need the extra parts, you just "tear them off" and put them away. Yeah, it looks a bit weird to have fuzzy strips on your hub and stuff, but hey.
