Intel Centrino Advanced-N 6200 card - different versions?

1,213 Views

Hi,

I am about to purchase an Intel Centrino Advanced-N 6200 card, but am somewhat confused about the various versions currently available.

Firstly, I have seen an 'ES' version advertised, which is apparently not suitable for use with Linux, and then there is the 6205 derivative, which does not appear to be currently available here in the U.K.

What I would like to know is whether or not it is possible to tell if the card is an 'ES version from the external label, or part number, (and if not how can I check) and also if there is anywhere I can purchase a 6205 in England?

Many thanks!
