The airport is compatible with (atleast) the Lucent 3mbit/s wireless network.
Lucent sells pc cards that will fit in powerbooks (and non-apple
portables) that will work w/ the airport, but only at speeds up to 3mbit/s.
I imagine that other products are also compatible..

I imagine fairly possible...I would guess that with the release of mosX and the
bsd device drivers for the airport, porting them to *nix would be pretty easy
(hopefully)....
