Hello,
I checked IBM website & emailed them, to no avail.
I have the IBM ThinkPad R31 [2656], currently running FC1.
I wish to buy a Wireless card for the laptop, but am unsure if 1) the 
laptop supports it. It has a miniPCI slot, however, I don't think there 
is an antenna [in the monitor?].
If it doesn't support a wireless card [via miniPCI], then what is the 
purpose of the slot ?
If it does support a miniPCI Wireless card, can anyone suggest a 
manufacturer/model ? I'm based in Ireland, and looked on 
Komplett/Irish/British sites, but have not gotten any products for the 
R31 2656 [or at least they didn't specify it explicitly].
I have googled etc for resolution to these issues, and I would greatly 
appreciate any support/help anyone can offer me.

Regards,

Sean O Sullivan
