[Angstrom-distro-users] kinda OT: hardware recommendation to replace my dead Netgear MA701 (CF 802.11b and/or g)

I have an AmbiCom WL1100C-CF also.
I went through h^&*l trying to get it to work with Angstrom, (Akita)  
finally gave up.
The card works very well using pdaXii13, and I can run Kismet,  
Ethereal, nmap,  lynx...
I haven't tried AirCrack on the Z, instead I transfer the files to a  
PC to crunch the data.
