First off, the Netgear unit responsible for the Router/Modem business is a totally different entity than the one responsible for the ReadyNAS line. Unfortunately shortcomings of the former tend to bleed over to the latter at least in the public view.
As to the part quoted, I'm not sure I really understand your problem. The software that is responsible for the Mac connectivity on the ReadyNAS is developed by a third party. This software already supports Lion, which btw is not a "fix" for a "bug" but an added feature instead, and is licensed by Netgear. So there's already proof for "a fix being in development". If you want to stir this storm in a water glass further, don't let me stop you. But with the ReadyNAS I'd say your chances to get working OS X Lion support are way better than with most if not all of the other vendors. And even if for some reason Netgear doesn't deliver an update as timely as I expect them to do, there are alternatives in the form of an add-on that could be provided easily.
