Hello Alex and list, I have a PCMCIA card adapter that the
Ambicom will fit in. I got it from Inside Computer.
The link and info is below. Also, I've seen the Ambicom card go
for around $50 on Amazon. Hope this helps.
Sincerely,
John

The new Ambicom wl54G is the latest one for the mPower.
Annoyingly,
you have to turn off the bn, put the card, then turn it on, and
it
will not fit in a PCMCIA card adapter because it is too thick.
The
cost is about $90 if memory serves, or maybe you can find it
elsewhere
for cheaper.
