One thing I should mention about the 3Com Card. It has an X-Jack Antenna which is a loop that sticks out of the PCMCIA slot. This acts both as an antenna and a switch. As an antenna it picks up the router signal very strongly, but it is the switch that sets it apart. To turn off the card, all you have to do is push the loop into the interior of the card and the card¹s power is disconnected and the card shuts itself off. You don¹t have to eject the card and since there is nothing that sticks out, it cannot be damaged. Very spiffy indeed! Jg
