Sorry for the delay...

According to the IBM site, general information about the T30, specifically dealing with connectivity:

       * Selected models will have Intel Wireless and modem Mini PCI
         combo cards
       * Selected models will have CISCO Mini PCI card
       * Selected models will have Bluetooth communication daughter card

From the looks of the Device Driver matrix, they're referring to a Cisco wireless mini PCI. They also list the standard Intel Pro/100 VE for the onboard NIC, and the IBM High Rate Wireless card, all for the T30 family. I wonder what Intel's site says about OS/2 drivers (need I ask)?

I'm wondering if Timur Tabi might be interested in working up a driver or two. He's definitely got the knowledge to do one, and frankly, while I charge the same hourly rate as Larry for what I do, I just can't see justifying that kind of overall cost for a driver for a single card. There's got to be a better way.

Lewis, I suppose the new ThinkPads with 802.11b capability utilize the support in
the  Windows operating system that comes with these laptops, huh? $40-60K for one of these drivers seems a bit pricey to me, but then again, what do I know. Wonder what Steve Mastrianni is doing these days? Anyone
know  where he might be? Charles [12:28 CT, 04-Mar-03]
