Quickertekannounced the future availability of a PCMCIA 802.11 n draft card to be compatible with PowerPC-based PowerBook running Mac OS X 10.4.8 or later. Named nQuicky, this card is claimed to bring high speed yield of 300Mbit/second, while being able to take advantage of MIMO technology. The card will cost US$149.
One will have to test such card to ensure that it really brings faster wireless internet connection to PowerBook users, as those notebooks were not having more than 1 antenna, and it remains unclear if one will need specific drivers, or if it will use some components found in Mac OS X 10.4.8.
Other manufacturers such as Belkin, Netgear and Linksys offer such upgrading card, but they are reported to be not compatible with OS X.
