    Well the Boy has bugged me to no end so I guess I better gather up what I need to get him wireless on his CF-28.
    I have already got the Lan/Modem combo card on the way but I can not find a source for the Engenius 8602-s 600mw card.
    Well a source that does not want two arms and a leg anyway.
    Anyone got any input?
    Thanks,
    Rick H...

    Got the Enguiness install BUT I need an internal antenna to install in the LCD cover.
    Does anyone have a source that is NOT overseas. Jeez... I can not find a supplier in the USA.
    Any help is appreciated.

    I've got one pre-made up for use on the side that has always worked well for me. (The flag type) You sort of wedge it between the little plastic port cover on the outside of the magnesium frame but under the plastic cover (under the battery side) and push the lead with the u.fl connector under the center to come out on the other side. Then you can hook it up to the wifi card.

    Let me make sure I have one.... I'll let you know...

    EDIT - I have a few... PM me your address and I'll get one out to you!
