Hello,
I just bought a T60 off ebay and discovered that there are two available mini pci-E slots(I guess the seller stripped the original wireless card before putting the laptop on ebay). Are there any wifi cards other than intel/atheros/broadcom that I can use on T60? Or is there any other mini pci-e card out there that provide different functionality? I've see some bluetooth adapter but they don't look like they are in mini pci-e form though.

In Thinkpads T60 one mini pci-e slot is usually used by WiFi card (intel or atheros), while the other is by WWAN card (Verizon, Sprint, Cingular, etc..). These are pretty much your choices for the slots.

Your bluetooth card, btw, should be already built-in. But if it is not, it doesn't occupy the slot since it is mounted in the lid under the screen.
