I didn't like MA701 too much. First of all, it does not allow one to manage profiles. I tried drivers from other vendors but PPC does not allow it. I have manged to install ambicom drivers in win2000 to use the MA701 in a cp card slot using an adapter. Ambicom allows profile management. I called netgear and they said they cannot mange profiles. I told them that almost every manufacture out there has profile management. It seems MA401 the PCCARD brother of MA701 has profile settings. I have also successfully installed MA401 drivers version 2.0 for win2000 to use with MA701.

Also the form factor is not pleasant. The antenna section is too thick. I wish it is no thicker that the CF portion, but it's almost 3X thicker.
