RE: WIFI Buy Update 1



Oh yea of little short term memory :)

Prices are:
Lucent Wavelan Silver NICs; 11Mb 802.11b (Same as Orinoco)   $45.00
Lucent Wavelan Ethernet Converter  Does Not include NIC      $75.00
Lucent Wavelan PCI Adapter for Desktop  Does Not include NIC $25.00
Lucent Wavelan ISA Adapter for Desktop  Does Not Include NIC $25.00

Although the vendor yesterday quoted the PCI and ISA adapters at $30.

Also, he has 'Wavelan Access Points' at $225 but there was no point
mentioning them as we can get WAPs cheaper than that.

HTH,


Tony
