        I had a cheap 802.11 CF card (for the IPaQ) and it only worked
with encryption turned off -- I returned it.

        I now use LinkSys wireless cards for all my systems (IPaQ, the Sharp Zaurus)
and my Linux Lib 100.  They might not be the cheapest cards available but they 
all work
reliably with zero hassles.


BTW if you DO use this technology, turn on encryption and use the full 104 
bits.
I set up a test wireless network with 40 bit encryption turned on and my Lib 
100
was able to crack it by brute force in 14 seconds!
