My WAP11 is in my study at about waist height.  The study is on the upstairs floor and pretty central in the house.  With the LinkSys WPC11 I was losing signal completely just 2 rooms away from the AP.  With the Lucent card I can get coverage EVERYWHERE in my house.

My WAP11 is downstairs in a cupboard.  I am about 10 feet from it horizontally and whatever a standard ground floor height vertically.
I get about 25% signal strength and without moving the devices/changing any config etc , have had signals vary from 11mb down to 2 mb/sec last night, ususalyl varying between 11 and 5.
I dread to think what would happen if I went outside with this!
60' & 3 walls seems reasonable for you though - think about poor me :)
