yep, thats not too bad a deal actually.  i assume, you'd have to +VAT
onto it aswell.  but even still, pretty cheap, especially as the
'x-jack' "technology", on other PCMCIA devices usually bumps up the
price somewhat.

i guess it depends on how good the card is.  Does anyone else know what
chipset this thing uses?  I'm after a new prism2 based card, and this
might be a funky cheap option..
