Subject: [OS2Wireless] miniPCI wireless cards on eBay

Mark, I recently had some trouble with my IBM tri-mode card (31P9701; 
not on your list) not wanting to let the T30 boot (I got a "multiple 
ethernet devices detected" error...I've not seen that one before). There 
is currently no tri-mode OS/2 driver, but that should be changing soon, 
when GenMAC is released (everybody: please, no flames concerning the 
release of the GenMAC driver; it's coming, so please be patient). That 
said, I don't have any specifics available on which mPCI cards actually 
work, sorry.
