I can't find any public info on the CG4000 yet, but if it is simultaneous dual-band with internal antennas, it'll likely have 5.

No idea about the CG3101D but the VMDG480's wireless chip (and consequently, number of "postage stamps") is modular and can be changed by the purchaser (i.e. VM).

Anyhow I do hope the simulations for the antenna are off, because if so, pretty much all other problems can be fixed with firmware (or as Seph says, hanging it upside down off the ceiling in the middle of the room).

If they are accurate, then the only way they can ever fix it firmware wise is to get DFS working and you to run all your networks at 5.7Ghz... Right now the SH firmware only supports 4 channels at 5Ghz, out of 24 (presumably because the firmware is incapable of DFS, which is disappointingly common these days)
