It's a problem that crops up fairly often on the ITT forums, with students (ideal users for ITT no?) wishing to connect to US University campus WiFi - the most recent new thread appeared yesterday[1].

There are also 3 enhancement requests in Bugzilla relating to PEAP/EAP support[2,3,4].

Not sure of your sources, but judging by the more public forums, there seems to be a fair demand for PEAP/EAP.

Perhaps engaging with the people who have taken the time to log Bugzilla entries will allow Nokia to understand why there is a demand? Just a thought... :)
