Take a look at
http://hyper.stanford.edu/~dhinds/pcmcia/SUPPORTED.CARDS
There you can find all the known supported cards. The cheapest would
be to get a ne2000 compatible card. Maybe the Aiwa is ne2000
compatible. In that case you have to edit the /etc/pcmcia/config file
so that the card is recognized. The PCMCIA-HOWTO that comes with the
pcmcia-cs package explains how to do that. It can also be found at
http://hyper.stanford.edu/HyperNews/get/pcmcia/home.html

Hope that helps
