The card might work if it is listed on Hiroshi Noguchi (the author of the
wireless driver) web site. The serial dongle plus a USB to serial adapter
might also be a good addition to get the required Ethernet drivers onto your
Newton.

farming n.: [Adelaide University, Australia] What the heads of a disk drive
are said to do when they plow little furrows in the magnetic media.
Associated with a crash. Typically used as follows: "Oh no, the machine has
just crashed; I hope the hard drive hasn't gone farming again." No longer
common; modern drives automatically park their heads in a safe zone on
power-down, so it takes a real mechanical problem to induce this.
