plmagis, sorry if my reply was a bit blunt.
The one that is in the review is the X3i (non BT).
After seeing that the author of the review had much lower benchmark scores than I did, I contacted him and found out that the review was written in January (before some of the update patches and the ROM update that Dell put up and then pulled a few weeks ago). I provided two sets of benchmark results that I made on my X3i BT on the day I recieved it, and he added it to the review.
Back to the WLAN utility, I agree that it would have been nice to keep the same interface for all the X3i models. I had a difficult time figuring out why I couldn't follow instructions on discovering the X3i's Wi-Fi MAC address from various posts on the forums.
One thing that annoys me about the X3i BT is that the Wireless on-off button turns both BT and Wi-Fi on, and there's no option to map it so that it turns only one or the other on. I did e-mail Dell with the suggestion, but I guess they didn't bother implementing it for the small (crappy?) update that they released a few weeks ago. (they apparently fixed "some wording" in the BT help file.... a bit lame isn't it?)
