I found this company that seems to have a USB adapter that should work for you. <http://www.synchrotech.com/product-usb/card-rw_00.html> You should probably email them first to find out. Other than that, you should (theoretically) be able to use any PCI adapter that uses a chipset supported by the version of MacOS you are using. I think most (all?) PowerBooks use the Texas Instruments cardbus controllers. For example, (IIRC) the 3400 has the PCI1130 and some of the newer ones use the 14xx series. Good luck.
