The D-Link 650 comes in a cardbus version.  See:

  http://www.dlink.com/products/wireless/dwl650/

I'm now in the market for a wireless card, so I'd like to know
if these work.

I'm also curious if the 802.11b+ (22Mbps) cards work in FreeBSD.
Dlink offers one of these in the DWL-650+.

If there's any card that you'd like to experiment on, I can
always buy one of those and send it to you for testing.  I
can do without one for a while.
