Does new airport extreme card work in iMac G3?

[01jamcon]

As the title says, will the new airport extreme card with 802.11n work in an old iMac G3 capable of adding an airport card? I know I need the card adaptor, but does this new one work fine, or do I need to buy an older version? Also, which old macs would have compatible airport cards?

The new card does not work in an original AirPort slot. To my knowledge, there is no adapter.

Thank you for your quick reply and at least now I know what to focus my searching on.

Few options

Original Airport card. These can be expensive because it's no longer produced. Costs $80 or more? which is the same price or more expensive as an iMac g3).

USB wireless card. These are limited to the usb 1 transfer speed of imac g3. So even if you get g, you'll be at most be at b speed.

Long ethernet cable.
