I emailed the ebay vendor which was quoted in the first article to confirm
compatibility with my T30 and they responded:

"the card will work with your notebook and the madwifi driver for linux

(www.madwifi.org <http://www.madwifi.org/>)"


So I will most likely order the card next week for testing. I will let you
all know. Any Canadian or US distributors of these cards read the list?
