free & non-free wifi firmware

Currently my AR9485WB is not supported under athn(4) so I am thinking of
switching it to something like the Centrino Advanced-N 6205 that is
supported through iwn(4) but with non-free firmware.

Would it be advisable to switch cards so I can finally have wifi support
or for the sake of being completely free would it be wiser to wait until
my AR9485 is supported?

If parts of the ISC-licensed ath9k driver can be ported over I would
much rather wait but there still seems to be issues with getting it to
work or initiate.

Or can someone suggest a totally free wireless card to replace the one I
got?
