[Ti] MacbookPro Intel Core Duo performance with 802.11n

Dear all,

the new Airport Extreme Base Station operates on  four 802.11 a/b/g/n  
wireless networks while the MacbookPro core duo airport card operates  
only on a/b/g standards. Only MacbookPro Core 2 Duo can fully perform  
with the new Airport Extreme base. Apparently it is possible to  
replace the original airport card with a Dell card  "Draft N 1500  
Wireless mini PCI-E card" that can be purchased on eBay for $45.
Has anybody made this change or has found other solutions? Apple does  
not sell the card and do not look providing any support for upgrade.  
The advantages provided by the new Airport Extreme Base Station  
become useless with the MacbookPro core duo.

Best regards

Fulcieri
