Wireless card suggestions
I'm looking to buy an Inspiron 1525, and I'm not sure what wireless card to get. My home network is currently a g, so I don't need wireless-n now, but in a couple of years, would I regret not getting the n card in the laptop?
If I do go with wireless-n, should I go with the Dell 1505 card or spend the extra $10 on the Intel Next-Gen Wireless-N card? Other than the difference in manufacturer, what are the differences between these cards? Is one more likely to be compatible with the final wireless-n standard?
Thanks in advance for any help.

I can't really see a reason for you to buy an N card at this point... wait till you either have an N network or until the standard is finalized.
Any draft 2.0 compliant cards (and I don't have a list) "should" be compatible with the final standard, but I'm sure that's not set in stone.
