I have a card... you will have to figure out the antenna part though.

Do you mean I will have to figure out where to get the antenna?
Or do you have one and I will have to figure out how to make it fit?

Both... I'm guessing the "make it fit" part is the hard part.
You can find antennas on the cheap, but you have to figure out a good place to put it to get maximum reception (ie someplace not blocked by metal). I suppose the easiest way is to do it
like this, where I just plopped a short antenna anywhere inside the case, and it apparently let Bluetooth work from a few rooms away. However I'm not sure how this translates to WiFi reception, and whether your X20 has more metal or something.
