Yea, I saw those on ebay the day after your post about this.  I lost
my first auction, but will have to try again to get me one of these
cards.  Do you have one?

: I'm also curious if the 802.11b+ (22Mbps) cards work in FreeBSD.
: Dlink offers one of these in the DWL-650+.

No.  These have a TI chipset in them, but TI won't release the details
of its programming :-(.  Not even with an NDA, it seems.
