Here's a update.  I plugged the card in while the laptop was off, booted up and now
the card works.  When I pull the card out, I get the usual 'wi0 detached' messaged. 
When I plug it back in, I don't get anything, and I have to reboot the OS to use the
card again.

Is there a tool that will let me probe PCMCIA devices?  Also, is there a NetBSD
wireless HOW-TO/tutorial or maybe more related documentation somewhere?

Thanks
