Airport Extreme Card compatible with iMac G4 800MHz?

Is the Airport Extreme Card (M8881LL/A) compatible with the iMac G4 800 MHz? I read that some old iMacs support Airport cards, which might be physically different from an Airport Extreme Card. Does this mean my iMac G4 model isn't compatible?

Macbook Pro (silver), Mac OS X (10.5.5)

The iMac G4 800 MHz is only compatible with the original 802.11b AirPort card.

It is NOT compatible with the 802.11b/g AirPort Extreme card.

I take it the iMac G4 800 MHz I'm describing falls under the fifth row as "iMac (Flat Panel)"?
