OWC is advertising an 802.11g card for older PowerBooks that don't accept the Airport Extreme card, such as the Pismo:

The price ($49) is certainly nice, but I am wondering if anyone has had any experience with this card. How is the reception? Does it use the final version of the 802.11g spec (their phone sales people told me it is the final version, but the page says it's the draft)? Would you recommend getting this card, or would it be better to wait for the Aria Extreme?

Thanks,
Charles

Ticking sound coming from a .pkg package? Don't let the .bom go off! Inspect it first with Pacifist. Macworld - five mice!
