The name of that place is "Action Computer," and I think that's actually 
Sunnyvale.  They did have a pile of wireless networking stuff in there when 
I was out at Stanford in January.  I don't remember the brand, though I 
think it was either Bay or Netgear, but the prices were $150 for a base and 
$50 for a mobile IIRC.

They have offered to ship to me, but I've never actually ordered anything 
from them.  I don't know if they ordinarily do mail order.
