Stephan,

Since AFAIK you only need one wireless card for your war driving rig,
perhaps you could install a PCMCIA serial card in the second slot for your
terminal?  Below, is some information that I cribbed from David Hind's Linux
PCMCIA drivers documentation.  It's available on sorceforge; search for
"supported.cards".

Modem and serial cards:

	[ Virtually all modem cards, simple serial port cards, and
	digital cellular modems should work.  The only exceptions are
	so-called "WinModems" that require special drivers.  ISDN
	modems that emulate a standard UART are also supported.  Some
	Winmodem drivers do exist (i.e., the ltmodem driver for Lucent
	chipsets).  For more information about WinModems, drivers,
	etc, see either http://www.o2.net/~gromitkc/winmodem.html,
	http://www.linmodems.org, or http://linmodems.technion.ac.il ]
