There are quite a few cards on the market now. Have a look at this one: http://cgi.ebay.de/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=3042632186&category=19578 In the description it says that the card may be used in any WinCE PDA or Notebook using PCMCIA adapter. That's why I asked if anybody used it on BSD. So you say that some special driver is needed.. This makes it less attractive than USB dongle. And it is much more expensive anyway. Thank you for your help! -- Alexander Pohoyda
