I have several dispersed wired devices I'd like to convert to
wireless, each with its own bridge. What's the cheapest 802.11b
client bridge out there at the moment? Somebody was unloading the
now-discontinued D-Link DWL-810 (no plus) for about $25 awhile back,
but they seem to be all gone. Any other candidates?

Why would you want 802.11b? You should get 802.11g. I know
there is backwards compatibility, but when one device on an 802.11g
network is operating at 11 Mb/s, all of your 802.11g network members
drop their operating speeds to 11 Mb/s. Having that on your network
is a liability if you plan to use 802.11g later.
