I haven't heard of anybody using one before. Looking at pictures of  
the card, it has a gold strip above the PCMCIA connector indicating  
it uses CardBus. CardBus is 32-bit and not compatible with the  
Newton. You need a 16-bit PC Card, which doesn't have a the gold  
strip. The Lucent WaveLAN cards have the best chance of working.
