I have a Netgear MA701, a perfectly servicable cf wifi card.
But since I use my cf slot for nothing else, I would prefer to leave my wifi card in all the time. The MA701 protrudes too much to transport the machine safely. I've looked at the hardware wiki, but haven't found a card that might live peacefully in the cf slot without any significant protrusion. Perhaps something with a retractable antenna, something with a structure similar to the old X-Jack PCMCIA modems. Is this possible? Thanks, Jake |

Smallest protruberance with a card, is probably (still) the Ambicom series. All others I have stick out more, if only a mm or two.

You wouldn't happen to own the Netgear MA701, would you? I'd love to hear an in-the-flesh comparison. I looked at the Ambicom pix on ebay, and Ambicom looks pretty close to the MA701. Jake |
