Steve,

Wireless, yes.  Inexpensive, no.  The least expensive "access point" (the
box that picks up the wireless signal) I could find was the Linksys for $260
(at www.microwarehouse.com ).  The wireless PCI cards run $46 each.  You
cannot use these to transmit from once PCI card to another.  It has to go
through an access point.

Hope this helps.
