MegaPC has the MSI MP54G2 for $38.50 (The site even has a link referring to linux drivers): http://www.megapc.com.au/product_details_and_order.php?select_part_indx=3284 Does anyone know of a place where I can a rt2500 minipci based card cheaper (any brand will do)?

Can anyone recommend a rt2500 minipci a/b/g card, too? :-) http://ralink.rapla.net/ gives you a nice list of their chips in different form factors. Either the Gigabyte or Billionton would be your best bet, as I haven't heard of any of the other brands.
