Hi!
Try ebay.
I bought an IBM a/b/g card, brand new and with a very good price.
I just swap my original Intel 2100 on my T40 with this one and it worked
like a charm ;)
Bought too a new modem/bluetooth daughter card to change my original only
modem daughter card, and a bluetooth antenna.
Finally, it has a Dothan 1,7Ghz with 2Mb cache now, instead the 1.3 1Mb
cache that was there.
All this bought in ebay, and with no problems.
Regards!
