We've been working on some deals for PCI <-> PCMCIA cradles here in
Sydney. We are waiting on another 100 cards to become available, but I am
not sure when. The last lot we were getting for $55 AUD each.

I can get PCI <-> CardBus Ricoh chipset cards for just around $100 (give
or take, I have been given an estimate).

Check out the node database at www.sydneywireless.com .. it list Adelaide
sites in there, and there are some links on the links page to Adelaide
groups.
