I would not recommend a "portable CD-RW" for your Wallstreet.  I went 
that route over 2 years ago and I was sorry I did.  The one that VST 
made/makes is very poor burning speed and virtually unusable with USB 
connection (i.e., you'll make a lot of coasters).  The FireWire 
connection for the drive which I purchased separately later was not too 
much better, though less coasters were made - but the burning speed 
connected to the Firewire CardBus was never more than 4X.

Since then I've learned that bigger is better and I don't need to burn 
CDs on the road, only at home - so I have an external stand-alone 
FireWire LaCie CD/CD-RW burner that burns at speeds like 16x and 24x.  
And no more coasters!!

There are still lots of places to get the expansion bay Zip drive for the 
Wallstreet (both new and used); check www.powerbookguy.com and other Mac 
resellers on the internet.
