Using a wireless card with a handheld is guaranteed to eat batteries, but you might have luck picking a low power one. > Here's the PCMCIA network hardware supported by NetBSD: > (This list is at http://www.netbsd.org/Hardware/pcmcia.html) Note that the list is updated much less often than the source tree, and doesn't clearly say whether other cards work with any specific driver. You might have luck asking on tech-net and/or current-users NetBSD mailing lists.
