Hi
I have an older wallstreet G3 and (still) like it - I am wondering if a PCMCIA wireless card will work with it in one of it's PCMCIA slots? If so, will any work? or only certain kinds/brands...

What do you mean by wireless? If by wireless, you mean 802.11b aka WiFi, then I know of no reason why not. Apple's Airport uses a standard Lucent-based 802.11b PCMCIA card. So, too, does just about everyone else. Airport Extreme (802.11g) aka Wireless-G is a different form factor. I am not aware of a PCMCIA implementation of Wireless-G.
 
thanks - that helps.
I checked around bit and SonnetTech has an aria extreme/ Wireless Extreme PCMCIA card
