Just get an Atheros 5K compatible wifi card and enjoy mobility with your powerbook.
MorphOS just flies on this class of hardware. |

I bought a new unused Atheros5k-based card on ebay for less than 5 USD, worked right out of the box. MorphOS rocks =) |

| hi Thanks for the replys but I will wait for an internal solution. Dont wont things sticking out the side of the laptop. So 2013 and still no Amiga laptop for me close but not close enough to buy Morphos.
keep up the good work im sure support will come soon.

It's not sticking that much.. nothing like with A1200 and PCMCIA ;) Power cable's connector sticks further than network card... _________________
