If you're planning to put an external antenna on it, buy an Orinoco,
really, save yourself the trouble.

The current Netgears are _not_ Prism II anymore, but they work with the
orinoco drivers.  They cannot be sanely connected to an external antenna
though.  The Orinoco costs a little more, but has the advantage that it is
built to connect to an external antenna from the beginning.
