How much are these. Their web site leads me to believe that they are in the $600/node range.

Sounds familiar. The IBM cards I'm working on right now IBM is reluctant to acknowledge that they even made them. Evidentally they sold the technology to somebody. They won't confirm or deny that, nor will they tell me who they sold it to. They won't give out any info on their wireless card programming. The closest that I've come is that there is an engineer who has a copy of the docs who used to work for IBM, but his NDA agreement doesn't expire for another year or three. :-(.

At least you got a direct "no" :-).
