External antennas and PC Card wirelesss NICs

Looking for a new WPA-ready PC Card wireless NIC for 802.11g, a card with an external antenna(s) or which supports them. A 'pre-N' card would be preferred, as would a card which uses less CPU than others.

It's for use in a Fujitsu subnotebook, the Lifebook P1032, runing XP Spack

  1. Its primary use will be away from hotspots in remote areas, for disaster relief work, and will be attached to a coffee-can waveguide or Yagi antenna for extra range. The existing Linksys WPC54G works OK, but has no external antenna jack, so I will move that card to another notebook which will stay close to home.

Your on-topic assistance is appreciated.

Thank you kindly.
