That may certainly be a problem. You may need to order one, for as far as I know, not many places stock cards that can be used with a 1400. Most places stock the big names like you have mentioned, but most cards the 1400 can use are made by Proxim/Agere/Lucent (one of those names - can ne

AHHH!!! That price makes me cringe! Got my DELL 1150 card for $35 on eBay, and that was probably too much. Works beautifully! On Friday, April 30, 2004, at 10:20 PM, Joe wrote: http://www.macwireless.com has cards for 1400's. I use one in my PowerBook 1400cs without trouble. Thing is they'r
