Intel Wireless card support - any good?

Which mini-PCI wireless card should I get?
I'm giving up on trying to get the wireless card in my laptop working.
I've got a Dell Inspiron 1300, with a Broadcom 4318. I've made a few
half-hearted efforts to get it working properly, but the support
really isn't that good.
After another failed attempt (using Feisty this time) I realised it
would be a lot easier if I just got a new mini-PCI card that *was*
supported.
Ideally, I want something that's automatically detected and configured
by Feisty (yeah - I'm lazy), and supports WPA.
There are some cheap Intel 2200 and 2915 cards on eBay. Are these good
options? As they've got an active driver under development, and
supported by Intel it's got to be a better bet than my Broadcom piece
of *****!
Thanks for your help
Olly
