I never used an 802.11b card on a Pismo, because I got an Airport card when I bought the Pismo. At the time, they were cheaper ($99) than 802.11b PC cards (~$160-180).

But I have used a Lucent/Orinoco WaveLan card in a WallStreet and a TiBook. The Lucent card works with the Airport software in OS 9, but I understand not all PC cards are recognized. The original Airport Base Station actually has the WaveLan Silver card inside, so it's totally compatible with the Airport drivers. 

I use the open source wireless driver for OS X on the TiBook: <http://wirelessdriver.sourceforge.net/>.
