    Wireless LAN PC Cards

    I have several boxes of these Cardbus wireless LAN PC cards (802.11g) but I am having some serious trouble with finding information on ebay as well as on the forum. I have about 20-25 still sealed in package with manuals and software. If anyone could offer some advice on whether to scrap or sell or any info at all I would appreciate it. Thanks.

    I had a bunch of different cards. I tried to sell them (they were new) and no bites. This is what I ended up doing with them.

    3 cards = 2 oz of boards.

    24 cards = 1 lb maybe 3.75 a pound.

    50 cards on ebay = 20.00

    Ha. All the computers I tear apart and recycle and I still cant seem to manage my way through the internet. Are these things outdated to the point where it is useless and only scrap worthy?
