Interesting. Curious what chip is it built on. Tried searching for MP54GBT2 and it returned only 6 not very useful hits, hmmm

the 6833 is MSI's wireless 802.11b/g card. The 6855 is the BT/Wireless, and the one in the Newegg ad is the 6833.
Not sure what's wrong, the 6833 part or the bluetooth part. The packaging is the same as the 6833, though, I have one of those.

The model number is " MP54GBT2" ... certainly the BT in the model number signifies the bluetooth addition? Did you go next day shipping? I have been looking for a wifi/BT minipci card off and on for a while ... I am stoked and curious. The wifi only model number is "MP54G2"

i saw that too, that's why i took the chance that it might actually be the BT card.
Yes, i overnighted it (of course, it's a new toy).

Good deal! ... looking forward to any info you can give us on it. Hopefully I will have one in the air by the weekend. I plan to order Thursday, but overnighting may still not get it here by Friday depending on when they actually process.

I saw the same card at NewEgg.com, I am tempted to buy it and give it a try...
I am interested in any feedback.
I saw that they have two different MSI Mini PCI cards listed, I am not sure what advantage one has over the other?

One is supposed to have bluetooth, the other doesn't.
