In case anyone else is looking for cheap CF 802.11b cards that work with
FreeBSD, I just got one via ebay;
  http://cgi6.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewSellersOtherItems&userid=eric8711

Arrived today, and is one of these;
  http://www.sparklan.com/wl672.htm
Specificly a WL-672F.

shows up as this;
  Card "Wireless LAN"("11Mbps PC Card") [Version 01.02] []

Works with stock pccard.conf on -stable, shipped with firmware 1.04.09
and works in client mode and hostap with -stable (with the usual minor
timeout issues with that firmware rev).

I'm using it in the CF slot on my IBM X30 but it should work in any
random pcmica slot in an adaptor.
