No pre 17" PowerBooks can take a 'G' card. The card is physically much
different and there is a good reason for this. The Old AirPort card bus is
simply not fast enough for 'G' speeds.

If 'G' is really that important to you in a PowerBook, I think a new
PowerBook is the best and most satisfying solution.
