    wireless card for fc3

    just installed fedora core3 this weekend want to know what is a good compatable wireless PCMICA CARD to use under fedoria c3 I am runing a HP pavilion N5425. Im very new to linux and finding my way around fairly well, I like fedoria c3 very much had been useing Mandrake 10.1 but it seems laptops are better supported under fedoria c3. Any help will be appreciated.
    thank you
