Re: Which card is better?

The Encore card supports 802.11n (draft), which is a newer "faster" kind of wireless, however you will need a wireless router which supports 802.11n. Other than that they both more or less the same.

Unless you have and use 802.11n, I would choose the Linksys adapter. The Linksys brand of devices is a lot more popular and mainstream than the Encore brand. And no, you're not just paying for the logo.
