I love my Lucent 11Mb wireless pcmcia card.  Works like a charm in both windows
and linux.  I'm even using it at home with an apple basestation.  It does stick
out a little from my laptop, so I do have to be careful.  However, it sure does
beat having to dangle a 100' 10baseT cable around the house! :)

It doesn't seem to affect battery usage much and the card only gets slightly
warm.
