A wide range of wireless technologies are available today as PCMCIA cards. This includes the ubiquitous 802.11b (Wi-Fi) standard at 11 MB/s, the newer 802.11a standard at 54 MB/s, satellite wireless (e.g. ViaSat), Bluetooth, and various cellular technologies including GSM (GPRS, EDGE, 3GSM), 2.5G (1xRTT), PCS, etc. One benefit of PCMCIA wireless is that it brings the antenna to the outside, giving noticeably better reception than with the internal antenna typically used with internal solutions.
