The antenna ought to be the same, the cards have a standard connector on
them (e.g. I didn't need to swap the antenna when I switched my atheros
for the ipw2200).

Unhelpfully, the atheros driver reports signal strengh out of 60, rather
than 100 like everything else, but I've not noticed any performance
differences to speak of.

Cheers,
