:) OK, so I should have been more specific: I want wireles on a
shoestring budget (get it? wireless? shoestring? OK, bad joke, sorry).
Seriously though, while realising wireless isn't going to be cheap,
the Orinoco cards are out of my budget range. Wi-Fi is a nice-to-have,
I'll settle for 30m range (through two walls), and 1MBps if that means
it's significantly cheaper.

11km... that would mean I'd have access to my home network from my
friends' place... hmmm...
