[MLB-WIRELESS] D-Link DWL-P200 Power over Ethernet kit

I just ordered a D-Link DWL-P200 Power over Ethernet kit from eBay for $92.

I intended to power my 2x R100 Node with it, but I just realised that
it would only provide enough current for one R100 (PoE supports up to
15.4W), each R100 uses 5V*2A=10W.

I figure that if I was going to stick with a professional PoE product,
I'ld need to buy another, and $92 x 2 = $184 total seems too much for
me.

I'ld like to know if anyone else is interested in buying it from me
for what I paid for it ($92). Maybe then I could then use an Extension
cable or a homebrew PoE instead, unless anyone has an even better
idea.

-Thanks
