Eh... I don't think it's got built-in wireless. All the VAIOs I've seen just had a regular RJ-45 jack for normal CAT5e ethernet. But with 2 PCMCIA slots, and none needed for normal ethernet, that shouldn't be a problem.

Yep, just put a PCMCIA card in.
Also shown optional is 5Mpbs Wireless.

Is that the 802.11a?
I didnt think it was out yet.

I love my Sony. But when it comes to their rebate turn-arounds.....they are just plain pathetic.
