Can I use a wireless PCI card manufacutred by a PC vendor with my B&W G3? I'm thinking of picking up a wireless card for my B&W (D-Link, Belkin, Linksys) whatever's on deal, is this something Panther 10.3.5 will recognize or will I require third party software for my AEBS to recognize the card?

It all depends on the vendor -- some work, some don't.
I've had great luck with D-Link stuff being cross-platform compatible, but YMMV.
Howabout an ethernet-to-wireless bridge? It takes up your ethernet port, but provides wireless access to 802.11 networks and is platform- and driver-independent.

Bought a Buffalo WCI2-PCI-G54S PCI Wireless Card for my G4 466 Mhz.
Mac not officially supported but worked beautifully in my G4. Auto-setup and everything(10.3.9). Just turned Airport on in the menubar and, voila. OS X has thee drivers built in, at least 10.3.9
Sold as PC compatible with drivers for PC.
802.11b/g
Will not act as Airport Base Station, but who cares. Was $39.99 at Best Buy.
It's a half-height card. uses a Broadcomm chipset, which are generally Mac compatible.
