AIRSTATION 11MBPS WIRELESS PCMCIA LAPTOP CARD PC/MAC

That should work well for you ;)  I noticed on a previous page that
they offer an 802.11g card for $30 but I'm not sure about driver
compatibility.

The Macintosh-compatible 802.11g card uses the same Broadcom chipset as Apple's "Airport Extreme" products - I know, because I sold three of these cards to another Mac-reseller last week. I believe that there are no open-source drivers for this chipset, and have seen NDISwrapper referred to in many forums articles relating to it.

This is not a comment on the 802.11b 11MBPS card that your link points to - for all I know that may use the excellently-supported Prism chipset.

Stroller.
