Depending on your model you should have two PC-Card like expansion slots for an AirPort Extreme (802.11g) card as well as a Bluetooth 1.1 card. Sadly, you can't use anything newer.

I would encourage you to review the EveryMac listing on what your system can and can't do. This series of system uses a PowerPC processor as such can't run the latest version of OS or software which are designed for the newer Intel models.

This case is sought by many modler's to create Windows PC or Hackintosh systems.
