Interesting. I found the opposite--that the external antenna of the  
Orinoco card gave somewhat better reception. Also the fan on my Pismo  
kicks in occasionally since I installed the airport card. Despite these  
small problems, I've kept the airport card in--I never liked the way  
the Orinoco card stuck out of the case.
