Nic,
I called SMC yesterday and they said that none of there wireless routers support AppleTalk over the wireless connection. The guy I spoke with even went to double check with one of the tech support guys. He said some of there wired routers support AppleTalk.
BTW, www.warehouse.com has the Orinoco card for $60.
