There is only on CF WiFi card that really claims to be a low pwer alternative, that being the Socket Low Power card. I have the NetGear, and it does pull quite a bit from the battery. How ever, i only use my WiFi for a quick sync, to pull email, and an occasional browse. If you are concerend about battery usage while on WiFi, your options include:

1. Deal with it and browse less
2. Chuck your current card and get a Socket
3. Get a battery extender like the one at Semsons
