Thank you!

Some of the specs (per the articles) for anyone reading this thread (and for me later when I forget :) )

WCF12 *** EDITED: These specs are listed for the WCF11 NOT the WCF12. Since the WCF12 is supposed to be more frugal, I am assuming it's specs are the same or a little better. I still think, from other reviews on the web too, that the WCF12 is the way I will go) ***

Power Consumption:
Sleep/Idle Powersave ON 44.8 mA
Powersave OFF 75.6 mA

Download (RX) Powersave ON 97.8 mA
Powersave OFF 93.2 mA

Upload (TX) Powersave ON 96.0 mA
Powersave OFF 89.4 mA

Socket

Power Consumption:
Sleep: 20 mA
Transmission:170-280mA

It does appear that the power consumption is similar. Even though the idle mA is roughly twice, the TX apears to even it out. Additionally, the range may be implied to be slightly better (not scientific) for the Linksys. They both seem to pan out to similar (as the poster had pointed out ;) )

Cool, I will not be returning the WCF12 card I bought in anticipation of my Ax shipping. :D

Thanks again for the good info!
