Richard:

Can't wait to hear how you do.  I do use a D-Link AP, but I don't think 
that's the issue.  I've also tried it with Linksys.  No soap.  I can get 
wireless up just fine with OS X on the D-Link AP, 128 bit encryption and 
all.

If someone can get it working with brand "X" I'll run out and buy a 
brand "X" AP.  No problem.  However, if you want to take your iBook to 
the local wireless hangout, you'd expect it to work with whatever they have.
