[iTunes] My sit-u-ation

You can connect to more than one ip network at the same time.

If you put a wifi card in the slot that will work just fine.. it will 
appear as another wireless card in the network prefs. It doesn't show 
now because you don't have one. Just like the bluetooth modem is only 
added when you pair with a capable phone.

I've used the wireless and ethernet at the same time on two different 
networks this is a *nix box now it is more than capable of running two 
networks. Just make sure they are different networks. i.e if the 
internet wifi gives you 10.0.1.x ip then make sure your airtunes is 
configured for 10.0.2.x or the machine will be confused on how to route 
your data to the internet. If you change your airtunes unit now so you 
can verify it works I bet that when you plug the wireless card in it 
all just works.

I don't have enough kit to test it for you but I'm sure it will work.

Let me know if you need a had.

cheers
