Hi,

I'm wondering if anyone has experience with, or has read reviews of the
following four cards:

- Nortel Networks e-Mobility 802.11b PC Card (OEM'd by Symbol? or at least
the same chipset?)
- US Robotics 802.11b PC Card
- Proxim Range Lan DS WiFi 802.11b PC Card
- Gigafast 802.11b Wireless PC Card

I'm leaning towards the USR card only because I've had good past experiences
with their products. (I thought they were bought out by 3Com like... a
number of years ago?) It's mainly between the USR and Nortel card... any
comments? The Lucent/Orinoco/Agere/whatever-they're-called-now cards are
supposed to be great (good reviews, recommended by our school) but seem to
be quite expensive. Suggestions for any other cards <$50 would be much
appreciated.

Regards,
  Jeddy
