Sure thing.  The best price seems from kento:

He has these cards at $30.00 each.  He has about 400 of them left.

Mine are in the mail and will arrive when I get back from vacation
middle of next week.  I hope to have at least a partial port of the
wlp driver done against the -current sources done shortly.  It would
be way cool if they were just relabeled wavelan cards, but I kinda
doubt it.

I also hope to do some experimentation with directional antennas to
see if I can boost the range from 400' into the 30,000' range.
