Subject: OS/2 Wireless Users List: Latest firmware & driver

Apologies in advance to everyone if this post seems a bit redundant. 
Jonas, that is an amazing piece of work you've done on the CHL site. The 
wireless stuff alone (not merely a blanket listing of devices, but 
vendor & ID info, etc.). Kudos.

Everyone: If you haven't visited http://www.os2warp.be recently, you 
should do so.

Thanks for the great service to the OS/2 community at large, Jonas, and 
for the wonderful wireless info you've assembled.
