Just the 3com etherlink adapter (pcelx, I believe). And AT&T Wavelan cards
(and compatibles, e.g. Digital's Roamabout?). Incidentally, has anyone
tried the Lucent/Orinoco Wavelan cards? Are they sufficiently identical to
the AT&T Wavelans?

You'd need to port them to Solaris in order to have them be useful.
