I needed some wireless LAN gear for my laptop. I did some checking and 
settled on a 3Com PCMCIA card based on the prism54 set as software for that 
is available at prism54.org

Now looking at everything it looks like it might still not be too easy, as 
it seems that the current kernel(s) don't have support for firmware 
uploading. Has anybody gotten a prism54-based PCMCIA network card to work 
on Whitebox and if so, did it involve patching/recompiling the kernel or 
are there easier ways to do this?
