NOT a review of the product BUT...,

This review is from: Apple Airport Wireless Card for Mac Pro - Network adapter - 802.11b, 802.11a, 802.11g, 802.11n (draft) (Personal Computers)
I haven't bought one of these but i nearly did.
Just so everyone's aware, Apple DO NOT consider this hardware to be user-installable. I've had a look at some discussion boards on this topic and it IS possible but looks like it requires time, skill and patience. Apparently the hardest part is correctly aligning the antenna to recieve a strong signal. Just a heads-up so you know what you're all getting yourselves into. If you live near an Apple store they may be able to help.
