Paul Guyot did build a tool that provides information about any inserted
card. The problem is that I can't find it anymore on my Newton or my Mac!
Using this utility would create a new note in the Notepad with all kind of
information, including the string that drivers are using to identify
inserted cards.
Sorry, you might find that utility on UNNA. In any case, if your Newton
reports that it cannot recognize the card, there isn't much you can do about
it, except contacting the author of the wireless driver and ask him to
support your card.
