Matt I'm always amazed at the way things work......yesterday I make my first post to this list asking about USB connections to my 70CT and today I wander into Circuit City to buy a 50 pk of 24X CD-R's for 1¢ after the rebate. So, I write my check and casually ask the clerk if he knows of a PMCIA to USB card whereupon he takes me to a shelf where there is a new product - an Orange Micro, Inc., PMCIA card (with external AC power included) to FOUR (yes, count 'em....FOUR) 2.0 USB connections. Now I don't even need an expander port - I can even plug a mouse and a keyboard into this card along with my external HD case and a CF card reader!! Amazing, and less stuff to carry.....the simple things!
