Mini PCI

[LiLRiceBoi]

I'm going to be purchasing a thinkpad in the very near future. I would like to get a mini pci 802.11b/g card but IBM doenst seem to offer it.

I saw a little something on the IBM forums about bios preventing third party mini pci cards to get used in their systems. Am I pretty much screwed for internal wifi w/ .11g support for now or is there a way to get around it?

TIA

From what I have read, any MiniPCI card must be IBM to work properly. IBM won't release a card until the IEEE spec is finally released, which is supposed to happen in Sept. if I remember correctly.
