I am also looking for a combo USB and Firewire PCMCIA card for a Wallstreet running 9.2.2. I tried a card from eBay listed here:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=3443775374
That card did NOT work. The card appeared on the desktop but it did not recognize Firewire or USB devices. The listing claims that it supports Mac OS 8.6 and up. I have since seen what appear to be the same card with different labelling stating that they require Mac OS X. I suspect that the USB 2 aspect of the card might be causing the problem as I believe USB 2 is only supported in X? Now I have to try to get my money back. :(
I think OS 10.3 supports USB 2 cards properly. I bought an inexpensive PCMIA USB 2 card for my TiBook (OS 10.2) and it only runs at USB 1 speed. It only came with Windows drivers. I have yet to move to 10.3 due to some software compatibility issues.
