Ya but I can get a brand new Proxim Silver for $15 plus $8 shipping. A gold will cost me at least $70. I may just get the Silver to see if this is something I will keep doing. I was hoping to find a good deal on a used card, but so far no joy.
Hell If I setup wireless in my house it is going to be g, not b, so I might as well save the money, right? Crap. Indecision. Oh well. I did get a GPS to talk to my laptop. That is something, right?
