Just a PC card. (In fact, if you were to open up your AirPort Base
Station, you'd find one inside!) And the software to drive it.

Yep. AirPort Extreme is backward compatable with the older protocol;
you just lose out on the improvements. In fact, this is almost
identical to the setup I have here, except I had to replace the AirPort
Base Station with different equipment.
