Offtopic RE: wireless in general

Hey all,

I know this is a bit off-topic (or at least off-brand), but no one else seems to be able to help me with this, so I thought I'd throw it out there. I know wifi on the Palm handhelds is not yet supported, but does anyone know of any (hopefully cheap) wifi SDIO cards available in Canada that are supported by other handhelds? Specifically, I'm thinking about buying a second-hand Ipaq h2200, which apparently supports everything, but I can't for the life of me find out what darn chipsets any of these cards use, and the manufacturers are no help. I was looking at Palm's wifi card (http://www.palm.com/us/support/accessories/wifi_card.html) and this one (http://www.ncix.com/products/index.php?sku=90302C22&vpn=WL6217-664&manuf...)
I also heard somewhere (it was old) that SDIO can't push data through at 54Mbps anyways, so there's no point in getting an 802.11G card - is that true?
If anyone knows, please respond soon, because I have to decide if I'm buying this or not today or tomorrow.

Thanks,

~Jeff

EDIT: This is now a non-issue, as the device was sold before I got back to the person. However, owing to the lack of easily available info on this, if anyone does know, it might be a good idea to post here in case any other people have the same issue.

If there is SDIO card that

If there is SDIO card that support 802.11g, then it should be capable of 54Mbit/s (or at least capable of >11Mbit/s).
