Those are the specs for the current generation cards.  Kent is selling 
the "Wireless LAN Entry", which has some specs at:

  http://www.networking.ibm.com/wireles/wdprods/jb.htm

(look half-way down page, left-hand column).  Dredging up old memories,
the IBM "Wireless LAN Entry" model wasn't even compatible with the IBM 
"Wireless LAN" model, even though the two products were rolled out together.
The "Entry" was meant as the cheapest possible wireless solution at the 
time.  You'll note the "Entry" model only has 350Kbps throughput and a 
1200ft cell diameter.
