Hi, I'm looking for an original airport card for a clamshell iBook. Anyone interested in selling one or now where I might be able to get one locally?

Thanks

I know The Mac Group has them on their website still - they're a pricey $149.99 though...

You're probably better off with a third party usb solution if your machine has usb...

Yes, $150 is too much for me, I only paid $30 for the iBook and can't really justify that sort of expense, especially when original airport cards are only going for $40 or $50 on eBay these days.

Hey, you could also get an ethernet-to-wireless bridge/adaptor from D-link(DWL-G820 -$89.99US)), Linksys(WET54G - $93.50CDA) or Belkin(F5D7330 ~$99CDA). Then you can use it for ANY device that has ethernet, and you get 802.11g speed with a better antenna and better range. Hey, you could use a cheap wireless router to do it as well - Belkin's 4-port G-router is $39.99!

Good Luck

Dan
