While we're at it, I have never taken my 2100 online, but I am interested in
trying it on my home 802.11b network.

I know I will need:
-a wireless PC card, 16-bit I assume?
-a driver for the PC card, and
-a browser on my Newton

Now, I have a Proxim Skyline 802.11b PC card, 16-bit/5v, will that work?

If so, where can I find a driver for it, and any other PC card that will work
w/ my Newton?

Finally, what is the best browser out there for my 2100? I am a AOL user; is
there someting like the old "ALoha" out there that I can use?
