Yes, I have tried the Farallon card and it works fine. It is not
CardBus, nor are any of the 802.11 wireless cards.
Keep in mind that Apple's equipment is capable of 11Mbps, which is
the new 802.11b standard. Most other vendors have a version as well
(Lucent for Mac). Farallon's card hasn't been rev'ed and still works
at the old 2Mbps data rate.
Any other questions? Feel free to fire away. I have gear from Bay,
Lucent, Aironet, Farallon, and Apple in my testing lab. I have tested
interoperability between all of them and it works fine.
