Congratulations.  I got one too like three weeks ago along with some others,
though I only wanted the M.2 for development.

People seem to have told you almost all I can tell you there.
I'll just repeat it here for the mailing list.

You can find more information here:
https://github.com/FreeBSDFoundation/proj-laptop/issues/66
and in the PR mentioned there:
https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=264300

Please keep in mind that all efforts are currently only focusing on STA mode, not AP.
I am not saying AP mode won't happen one day but don't hold your breath just yet.
