Netgear MA401 802.11b Wireless PCMCIA NIC for $62 AR

[EDiT]

I just found this, and didn't see it mentioned in a search.

Buy Netgear MA401NA here for $69 + $8 shipping. Total is $77. Then send in $15 rebate from here.

That will put you pretty close to $62.

This card seems to be 128but, so for $12 more than the Sony at CompUSA, it seems like a good buy.

Got pretty good reviews from Practically Networked.

Bump 'cause I feel like a loser for getting NO replies to one of my first hot deals.

C'mon guys, no one even thinks this is warm?

Bump for a good deal on a quality product.

I saw a stack of these on clearance at Staples B&M for $60 a couple of days ago. About the same price after mir as Insight. Too bad Staples isn't listed as one of the participating retailers.

Be advised that this card will not work with Windows XP. See the following column at ZDNET:

Wireless isn't ready for XP

My MA401 works flawlessly with Windows XP on my laptop.

That guy is talking about the MA101 USB adapter.

I have it working just as it did with Win2k Pro, configuration utility works and everything.

Mine works fine too.. using a dell inspiron 8100 laptop with the ma401 netgear card with a linksys wireless router... oh yeah my laptop is running windows xp pro and the card works fine... only complant i have is after standby the utility looses connection to the card so it doesn't show signal strenght, however card still works... gotta restart the utility to get it to connect again... but other wise works fine under xp... just use the 2000 drivers.. not digitally signed or whatever.. but i see no problem
