Hi Adam, that's exactly what I did. Wanted to have a constant view on 
this temperatures (instead of running a 'sensors' command every time) 
and after few of the solutions didn't work I installed gkrellm, and out 
of the box, it showed me temperatures for BAT1 (charger), BAT2 (cells), 
CPU, GPU, HDD and PCI - and all I had to do is compare them with sensors 
output.

Considering gkrellm shows correct info (where does it get it from?) that 
still leaves me with values 9, 10 and 11. I'm thinking I'll be able to 
isolate Wireless adapter by comparing the temperatures when using 
Wireless with those after I shut it down with the hardware switch.
