More info?)
You can still find the 802.11G (MN 820) kits from several on line discount
resellers. I purchased mine from J&R Music World\Computer World in New
York. Ordered on line. You can give them a call at 1-800-221-8180. Or go
to www.jr.com and order direct. The price for the kit should be around
$71.00 not including shipping. That's cheaper than Best Buy who had it on
sale for $80.00.
I see where Radio Shack has their Linksys line on sale but it's not the
latest. B rather than G.
