Hi,

My Omnibook 6000 features a mini-PCI slot in the bottom. Currently it's
empty because my notebook was shipped with a LAN/Modem combo PCMCIA card.

Now I'd like to put a wireless (802.11x) network interface card in the
mini-PCI slot.

I found some cheap TrueMobile 1150 Mini-PCI cards on eBay, but it explicitly
states that there's no antenna with the card - you must use the integrated
antenna in the Dell Inspiron/Latitude notebooks.

Therefore, I'd like to know if...

* Does the Omnibook 6000 feature an integrated antenna?
* If not, can I puchase one?
* Any expiriences/recommandations on Wireless mini-PCI cards?

Thanks in advance.

Christian
