There's some, but it's disappointing how little.  I recently was in the market 
for a wireless PCMCIA card for a new laptop to add to my home network.  I 
bought a D-Link DWL-G630.  I had to buy a revision C device to be sure the 
Atheros drivers would work.  That said, the Atheros drivers worked right off 
since I knew what I was looking for.

I think I found the MadWifi pages very helpful.  Look for a big list of all 
the cards and chipsets and they will very specifically identify what cards 
and revisions will and won't work.

Good luck to you.
