I never intended to moderate this list, but there has been a heck of a lot of OT chatter of late, and I know that some folks do prefer lists to remain somewhat closer to the cuff. My post was meant as a reminder that this is a wireless list, after all, and we should at least try to discuss wireless topics. FWIW, the T60's I've seen have an Intel 3945 tri-mode card, which is essentially the same chip as the 2945 mPCI but a different form factor (the 3945 is not mPCI, but rather Mini-PCI Express. Our friends at Intel have some information available: http://www.intel.com/network/connectivity/resources/doc_library/tech_brief/310796.htm Here's a little bit about the Atheros AR5006EX-based card which is supposedly also available: http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/ThinkPad_11a/b/g_Wireless_LAN_Mini_Express_Adapter I don't have PCI ID strings handy for either of these, nor do I know if the PCI Express bus is even accessible under OS/2, as I simply haven't had enough time to play with an installation on a T60 as yet.
