RJ45 wireless adapter

I'm going to be switching over to a wireless network soon and am all out of PCI slots on my machine (mini-ATX). While I am aware that there are USB wireless adapters out there, I was wondering if there were RJ45 wireless adapters. I can't seem to find any. This would seem (to me at least) to be a no brainer.

Anyone know why or have a link to one?

Thx
 
I wireless receiver needs power to operate. A NIC does not provide any power. If you must use the NIC, then get a Wireless Access Point or a router.

Don't understand why you'd be averse to the USB option. For about $25-$50 you can get a 802.11g USB adapter that can work in any desktop or notebook you want to port it to. They're also the size of thumb drives now and usually come with a nice USB extender. They're pretty cool.
