I think the USB PCMCIA cards are extremely rare... See this thread.

To date, AFAIK, there's been no confirmation of a pcmcia usb card in existence. Speculation yes, but no hard evidence. A pcmcia usb card is probably the most desired hpc goodie that doesn't exist. Be sure to post here if you uncover one.

Nick Charlton has a Ratoc.
It is for CE3+ though, the chances of finding drivers for 2.11 are exceptionally remote.

PC Card is the 1998+ name for PCMCIA, they changed it to be more user friendly.

Those are cardbus cards.. HPCs do not have them, nor support them [CE 5+] and also the hardware has to support them as well... In other words, the PCMCIA cards are 16-bit and the cardbus cards are 32-bit..

PC Card = 16-bit
Cardbus = 32-bit

There are no 16-bit cards that are known around here.
