    Hi,

    My girlfriend got a Dell 2200 notebook for Christmas. I'm trying to find out what internal "mini" PC wireless cards work in this notebook...

    http://forums.us.dell.com/supportforums/board/message?board.id=insp_network&message.id=39849

    ...does anyone know if the mini PC slot in the 2200 is an open standard slot? If so what other wireless cards can I put in there? I found a number of cards on ebay...for about 1/3 the cost of Dells internal wireless cards. Any tell me if these are a good deal?

    Thanks,
    Jeff

    I can't find much more detail than this.

    If you want to investigate further I would suggest to download the Owner's Manual:
    http://support.dell.com/support/edocs/systems/ins2200/en/index.htm
    there should(?) be more detail there.

    The specs say it has a "Type I or Type II" slot. I would say that you could use your own wireless card.

    I don't have much experience with notebooks, maybe this info can help one of the others. If you are still not sure, ask at the Dell Community Forums.

    Matt
