Wow. I did not know Apple stopped making these till I went looking for one...
I want to stick an Airport card in my Rev A FP iMac... Apple at one point had them for $75 when Airport Express came out.
I was expecting to find them for 50-60 on eBay... But nope, $100-150 
Anyone willing to sell me their old Airport card for $50 to 60 dollars shipped?

yeah, this is the dumbest thing they've done in a while. there's money to be made and now you can't even replace yr airport card if breaks, hell, airport cards won't be included with any systems anymore, they are worth too much on their own.
i'm holding on to the two i have, there is no way i'm paying $150.

My school's selling them for $80. Way better than $150, but I don't need one so I am not going to buy one. However, I'd definitely check out a nearby university with a wireless campus - they stock a lot of the cards to provide to their students, and a lot of the time the Airport cards don't get used because a lot of college-aged guys are into gaming (which of course is a PC thing).
