Will airport extreme card from 15" PowerBook G4 work in a 17"?
I took the airport extreme card out of a 15" Powerbook G4 with the intention of installing it into my 17" but when I was reading the guide on installing it into a 17", I noticed that they actually sell one specifically for the 17". Do I necessarily need the one that is specific to the 17" or will the one from the 15" work?
Update
I should also note serious doubt that the 17", A1013 that is, has a AirPort bluetooth combo card because it has bluetooth capabilities as it stands but no wifi.

We need the EXACT machines. Please list this last three letters of the serial numbers on each machine. From just looking at a couple of the Aluminum models it appears that the 15" uses an Airport extreme card and the 17" uses a AirPort bluetooth combo card.
