The wireless cards are all more or less interchangeable and go for
US$50 to US$100 apiece. It's the base station that's going to gouge
you. AirPort is US$300. I wouldn't expect any other brands to be less
than US$200.
There's probably no way you could get it going -- with brand new
equipment -- for under US$500.
Remember too you get what you pay for. If you buy really cheap
equipment, you can probably expect exasperatingly common comm
failures.
