I have the dlink one for my G3 Bronze p-book. Works fine!! I got a 
rebate on it when I bought mine and it was maybe 20 bucks altogether. 
Search on froogle for a lower prize, 55 sounds too high. Both of these 
should be about the same price. Honestly, I'd just get the D-Link at a 
better price and use the factory driver and utilities rather than having 
to search out a contributed one on the internet. Save yourself the time. 
It isn't like we're talking about huge sums of cash here.......
