Adding laptop to wired network

I currently have a fully working wired network - well, 2 computers and a
router. Thanks to work I will shortly be getting a Apple Powerbook
(12" Power PC model) so I would like to add wireless to my network. I
figure I need a bridge but beyond that I'm a little clueless. Can anyone
suggest a suitable make / model and source? (aside from dabs.com, who I
now stay well away from).

Many thanks

indeed, you need an Access Point. You can get a Motorola 802.11g one
off ebay for about £20.
