    I have a VGN-A130B notebook. THe centrino wireless card has died. Sony wants an arm and a leg for one. I was wondering if anyone knows which part# Intel card will work in the laptop.

    Thanks,
    Scott

    what about getting a cheap PCMCIA wireless card? I used one on my old laptop before i got one with built in wi-fi.

    Also, you can get cheap usb wi-fi adapters. Try looking into them first.
