The MA311 I guess is good.  I've always 
wanted to try some Orinoco Silver or 
Gold cards, the gold has better wired 
equivalent privacy but you shouldn't 
rely on this because it's easily 
cracked.  Why watch reality tv, the 
exploitation of people on it is 
appaling.  I hope your not living 
with this girlfriend if your not 
married to her, it'll cost you and 
her a potential lifetime of happiness 
together if you are.  Don't believe 
me, look at the statistics on live 
ins and divorces.
