Re: MacWireless announces Airport buy-back program

[[EMAIL PROTECTED]]

I get much better reception with my Lombard and Silver card than my 
mother's TiBook with airport. And i have an extra silver card and in 
the one pc card slot she gets similar reception to mine. I believe it's 
a power thing. Airport cards are lower power which means longer battery 
life, but poorer reception.

I refused to deal with the poor reception with my tibook + airport

finally, i grabbed an orinoco gold card for a few bucks and now i get 
2 to 3 times the reception of most airport cards and about 100 times 
better reception than my old setup.
Is this just with the TiBook? How does an Airport card compare with an 
Orinoco card on a Pismo?
