I came about "this" close to making the same mistake, this
time with D-Link. D-Link DWL-520 is supposed to be a prism2,
so I nearly bought a D-Link DWL-520+ (which is TI, not prism.)

I'm doing an okay job of finding what cards NOT to buy, and
I'm finding a number of cards that would supposedly be fine,
if they were available in the US or if they weren't discontinued.

But I'm having no luck finding a PCI wireless card. Or a USB card
for that matter...

So, I'm not just looking for advice -- I'm looking for a response
from a vendor who can sell me the right card.
