I'm sure there are ways to get an 802.11G device to work with your  
iBook.  However, the "extreme" technology is still a toddler and is too  
big to fit in a card the size of the original AirPort card.  If you  
want to be able to use 802.11g, you will have to get a USB 802.11g  
Device that will work with Mac. I went ahead and did a little research  
for you and found that Belkin is working on a (rather expensive)  
adapter that plugs right in to your iBook's ethernet port.
It is available here:

I'm sure other companies that produce wireless technologies have or  
will have something similar to this.

Cheers ^_^
