Yes, everything's hardwired right in, nearly. The PCI interface is kept so the operating system can tell what drivers to use for everything through plug-and-play.

Laptops usually do have one mini-PCI/PCI-e slot though, because getting a product approved for wireless is a pain. They'd much rather buy an approved wireless card off-the-shelf than put their entire laptop through some slow, expensive FCC test procedure every time they switch wireless chipset manufacturers.
