My recommendation is to go with a regular Airport card. I¹ve got a powerbook with a pc card sticking out. Pain in the bass.
My iBook has an Airport card and it¹s great. Unless you¹re moving large files between computers I don¹t see the advantage of a faster card. 11 Mbps is still almost 8 times faster than my ADSL connection. Best of luck.
