Hi,
I'd like to make my iBook wireless. I don't want to buy an AirPort card since they are of dubias value to me (seriously, $100+ is kinda high, but supply/demand...I'm ot already!), so I'm looking for a wireless USB adapter. It doesn't have to come in the box or have any cds, etc, but it has to work. The only one that I found so far is D-LINK's DWL-122, but if anybody knows/has another one, i'm open.

I have one lying around somewhere, I believe it was made by Proxim/Farallon, but I don't know if it will work in OS X. Worked like a charm in OS 9, though.
I do not like those green links and spam.
I do not like them, Sam I am.

Thanks!, If you have the model number, then I could look it up online.
