Have we solved the 802.11 security issue?

Until a year or so ago, I was heavy into the wireless provider (2.4GHz space), wireless network, and enterprise wireless security arena. I have taken a break since; yet sill paid attention enough to see that WPA and WPA2 are basically everywhere.

I’m sure my job (who currently has stayed away from wireless for client access on campus) will need to deploy it at some point, and in my initial research it seams that a modern Broadcom or Intel 11b/g card with WPA2 abilities, Windows XP SP2 w/ the WPA2 patch, and a enterprise Cisco WAP would be as secure as any… No special software or PC Cards on the client, No additional VPN requirement after WPA2 authentication…. just seamless roaming-enabled wireless LAN connectivity without all the fuss. Is this still the stance of those with their head in the sand?
