Going Wireless - In Canada?

[andsoitgoes]

This isn't a question on whether I *can* go wireless, but where to go to get the best deals for the wireless CF card and access point.

I can't seem to find any wireless CF cards anywhere, and I'm not sure what I should be paying for the access point... Grrr, I'm peeved now that I didn't try harder to win that free Wireless kit at the Cisco seminar last year! D'oh!

Thanks in advance! :D

A couple of places to try:
http://www.directdial.com (the Canadian site, under 'networking')
http://www.handheldcanada.com (also under 'networking')

Not great deals as far as pricing is concerned but good availability and "Canadian friendly". :)

I have checked best buy and futureshops from hamilton to mississaugua, and at best, they have 256mb memory cards. they never heard of CF wireless netork, modms, cameras, or heavan forbid a CF GPS.

My next alternative is to order from an online store in the states, and get it shipped to a firend, then pick it up next time accross the border. i am only an hour from the border anyway. The online canadian stores seem a bit pricey when compared to the US counterparts.

I looked all over in Canada for Wireless CF cards and the best answer I could get was 6 to 7 months away for standard availablity. So I ordered a Netgear Card from the states for 180 Canadian. I was able to find a Linksys WCF12 card at Futureshop Oakville but it didn't work in the Axim. Not for me atleast.
