Proxim also makes some Prism2 cards. They still call the WaveLAN-based ones WaveLAN. They're Prism2 line is called Skyline. (I think.) Proxim's been having some money troubles lately; look for them to get bought by somebody (Netgear? Cisco? Who knows...) Outside of that, Istr that Cisco and (less sure of it) Intel licensed the WaveLAN chipset at some point or another. urls that are, at present, in my Phoenix "wifi" bookmark menu: http://www.epinions.com/content_2571411588 http://www.goonda.org/wireless/ http://www.ff.iij4u.or.jp/~ngc/eng/newtwave.htm http://www.practicallynetworked.com/tools/wireless_linux.htm http://sdb.suse.de/en/sdb/html/pcmcia_wavelan.html http://bengross.com/wireless.html http://80211b.weblogger.com/ http://www.personaltelco.net/index.cgi/Prism2Card http://www.practicallynetworked.com/ I'm lazy, so you can figure out the details for yourself. ;^> (Hint: newtwave.htm is about Apple Newton WaveLAN support. Yes, I have one. You probably don't care unless you also do, in which case you *really* want to shell out the $10 shareware. I mean, c'mon, wireless ethernet for your Newton? How *couldn't* that rock?) -- gabriel rosenkoetter gr@eclipsed.net Attachment:
