I've just been using wicd for a couple of days intermittend wired and
wireless connections to different networks and can just say that it
works great. If you don't have some peculiar reason for sticking to
network-manager, you should be fine to remove it.
IIRC there are different options for using dhcp with wicd. I use
dhcp3-client.
