Okay, I think this is a good spot for this, rather than classifieds, so that we can have discussion on what is needed and why you need it. 

I'm going to start off with:  I really really need a Wireless PC card (Wifi pcmcia card).  Mine was on it's last leg and crapped out on me this morning. I checked Office Depot and Walmart.  Cheapest I found so far is  $50.  I can get it much cheaper through ebay, but not at this time.  So if anyone has a wireless card that they don't need any longer.  Maybe I can get it for a couple of bucks?

I'll ask around, but I don't think I have anything...

I'd appreciate it.  I'm going to post a request on the yahoo free give away site too. Perhaps someone who has gotten a new wireless ready laptop for Christmas is willing to part with one they may have been using.

Not sure if the sale is on after tonight, and it's late, but Fry's had an Airlink b/g PCI adapter for $15.  That MAY be after MIR.  Usually is at Fry's, unfortunately.

 EDIT:  http://www.netaffilia.com/ad/electronics/frys/i/2008/01/11/29302.html  Shows no rebate is required.

EDIT 2:  I'm an idiot, and thought you said PCI.  Doesn't look like they have anything special for pcmcia.

You're not an idiot.  Quick glance sometimes looks a little different. ;)  But thanks for looking. :)

To anyone who took a minute to see if they had an extra card or looked into it for me at all, I thank you.  I no longer am in need of the card.

To the person that helped me get a replacement card....THANK YOU!! I appreciate it very much. Back to online job hunting and other work. :D

I was going to ask if it was that thing I put in my computer to use my Sprint card in the desktop? If so, and the other one falls through or something, I still have mine if you need it.

It's the card itself Daisy, and I've already got it. :) I don't know who helped me out, but I love them. :)  (ESPECIALLY if it is the case that if I knew who it was, I wouldn't love them. LOL)
