Ok -- now that I'm reading the driver stuff, I'm just starting to get
interested in this wireless stuff. I have a few questions:

1. I don't run a Mac. Can I do anything? If I get one of those Airport base
stations -- can I use it with my Wintel-based LAN? (In other words, does the
base station do all the work -- or does it need to talk to a Mac or something
else to be configured and such -- or even to route traffic?)

2. Anyone know if the new driver works with the C card (012372/C)?

3. Are there cheaper base stations out there? In other words, can I pretty
much get any wireless base station that the WaveLAN cards will talk to? Or is
there something special about the Airport stations needed by the Newton?
Appletalk support maybe?

Thanks...
