However  the machine, it when comes,  will not have a wireless card installed.  Can anyone advice me of products which would work without taking the machine apart?  Also can anyone advice on a mouse which can be used instead of the installed pad?
I assume T40 have pcmcia slot, so any supported pcmcia card should work.  
Lot's of card works. See:

I personally used MA401RA, but it's only 802.11b speed.
