Are there any wifi cards with internal antennas? That is, you want nothing sticking out the end of the cardbus slot? It seems to me the performance would be hard to guarantee given there is no control over what the antenna would be radiating through. The notebooks with internal wifi have built-in antennas. I've seen tape on patch antennas that you could put on the back of your notebook if your intent is to have a more rugged setup. Ralph Sims wrote: > I saw those--thanks.
