	In this case, there is only one vendor I know of that sells 
802.11b equipment that is also capable of handling 22mbps speeds. 
That would be TI, and USR is one of their major partners.  It is the 
TI chipset that I am talking about.

	See 
<http://www.usr.com/products/networking/wireless-product.asp?sku=USR2210>.

	D-Link is also a reseller of TI chipset hardware.  See 
<http://presslink.dlink.com/pr/?prid=27>.
